    The story of Telegram is very special. Durov is the founder of both VKontakte and Telegram. He was forced by threats and other hard measures to hand over VKontakte because he refused to allow the Government to spy on people through his platform.

    They tried to push him around with Telegram the same way. He left to live abroad. The Russian Government then proceeded to ban Telegram nationwide. What a badass.
