Telegram to Share User Data for Legal Requests After CEO Arrest
Following the apprehension and subsequent release of CEO Pavel Durov, Telegram will share user data with authorities in compliance with legal requests.

On Monday, he noted that the app had taken steps to remove “problematic content,” as it ramps up efforts to eliminate those who “violate terms of service,” and abuse the messaging applications.
