Quickie news by Amarynth
We all started using Telegram when the Russian voice was completely blocked, just after the Ukraine SMO started. I remember very clearly a 2 week period when I could not find anything, and I live in a country where they did not sanction Russian news. We’ve known that Telegram is under extreme pressure. This from Maria Zakharova.
💬 #Opinion by Maria #Zakharova:
News about Berlin’s ongoing pressure on the Telegram messenger app has been leaked to Der Spiegel. According to the information obtained by the magazine, the German criminal police forced the company to hand over users’ personal data under various vague pretexts, as well as to block channels at the request of law enforcement agencies.
I must say that the Germans have been putting up pressure on Telegram for a long time.
And now this “no pressure” has forced the company’s management to enter into a nexus dialogue with the German police. Regular consultations are held, and, according to Der Spiegel, the head of Telegram attends them “wearing a hoodie.” As a result, the Germans have forced the messenger app to leak user data to them.
What hypocrites! If you read the coalition agreement between the German parties on forming the government – the main document defining Germany’s internal politics for the next five years – the protection of personal data is high on the government agenda. It says, we promote anonymisation methods, establish legal stability through formalised standards and introduce criminal liability for illegal deanonymisation. The Germans have voted for this believing their government would uphold their rights to privacy and freedom. In reality though, the German justice and law enforcement agencies are giving their citizens less and less freedom online, reinstating the worst traditions of the “police state” (Polizeistaat).

It is really absurd seeing a country destroyed by Nazi ideology embracing these evil methods. What a shame germans!!
Nations-socialist ideology didn’t destroy Germany. War defeat against Allies did it.
I take the following as axiomatic with respect to technology and privacy: If it is possible to compromise privacy, then privacy WILL be compromised.
The “strong form” of the above adds: It is ALWAYS possible to compromise security
Legal protection, corporate assurances, etc., are essentially worthless.
nemo outis
How do we know this post on telegra.ph is really from Maria Zakharova?
Because it was posted on the Russian Foreign Office channel.

“illegal deanonymisation”
But of course, it’s not illegal when they do it.
Or when the NSA does it to Frau Merkel..
The BND has some of the nasties roots of any intel organisation. They rule Eastern Europe. I seem to remember to boss of the organization needed to be airlifted out of Kiev during the SMO. Tells you something. Probably still have retired professionals with personal aquaintance with Bandera before he was sent to see his maker.
Privacy and security in Cyberspace is lagely an illusion. If the creator is known, a back door will be made. We’re dealing with forces that makes the worst of the mafia look like a sweet sunday school club.
Thanks for info. Finger to the forever liars :-(.
Remember before internet (CIA invented) we could/would post a letter through the post office and unless you were a targeted criminal I assume ordinary citizens mail were privat and not opened.
So all the toxic de-humanization came with the growth of MIC as a business model with tentacles inside everything also civil matters.
There were whole teams opening letters. A few famous cases. This goes back to Venetians running a European intelligence net.
If your read these privacy laws there will always be a line that reads something like this: “Unless required for state security”
I hate telegram.com anyway. It only works with cellphones, you have to give up your cellphone number to use it, etc. Why not just stick with .mp4 videos that can be watched by anything?
Also, while I am ranting, where are the original videos from Mariupol and the first days of operation V and now Z? Specifically there was a video of a BMT-90 (whatever it was, I’d swear it had twin cannons and a low turret) blasting away, rapidly reversing, rolling ahead and blasting again and then the video was from the right side of the BMT and I could hear the transmission and final drives.

This is very disappointing news! Why was telegram management able to refuse Chinese requests to hand over data on Hong Kong terrorists or Russian requests to shutdown Ukrainian nazi telegram channels, but then capitulate to the German police?
My guess would be that if you don’t play along with Empire, your history in the Apple/Google App Store. Like the brilliant Sputnink app, which is no longer available for new users.
German people also lives as parasites of the sweat of the workers of of the rest of the world. Their high standard of living depends on the hability of the UE to impose their paper pegged in the shit of european people as much as money, the Euro as an appendice of the dollar. If the dollar is removed as global money, german people standard of living will be similar to the Zimbabwe people standard. Hence German has to do every thing US demands from them in this war against Russia now and later on against China. The US demands that German controls what the Telegram does and German obeys.
Two world wars & Israel and some folk still trust anything Austrian German or English? At least the RF & allies trust in the USA has gone at last. All their, ahem ‘free western[sic]’, style is inbred like their elite over millennia. Best wishes out of this mess, I separated a lifetime ago
All I know is, Russia is prudent enough not to cancel whole countries/nationalities because of a few bad apples.
Phoning the BND (BundesNachrichtenDienst) answers with Howdy? – Switched to Lanlgey.
Largest NATO base – Ramstein.
Nuclear weapons (B61’s) stockpiled at Büchl (also Incirlik…).
And you guys are worried about Telegram?
The EU GPRD is here :

After it became known Skype had a backdoor, certain firms realized their IP was on GE’s and Boeing’s desks.
After Merkel’s handy was compromised, even MP’s realized all their handys were. Alles Neuland!
Cisco Internet Routers all have backdoors, and Huawei”s jokingly crashed with exactly the same error code – looks like they closed that door!
During Schroeder’s Chancellery (and look what they are doing to him now!) it was leaked that London knew all before the Bundestag.
And there are still some who believe Dieselgate was the result of a random US emission test – and not handys of the entire Auto sector Boards.
Snowden did prove the NSA does industrial espionage.
And the defining Ampel Coalition motto – In Sync. That they are indeed.
Cisco Internet Routers all have backdoors, and Huawei”s jokingly crashed with exactly the same error code – looks like they closed that door!
You’ve lost me on that one. Can you expand?
Meanwhile :
Censorship efforts did not work ! Microsoft internal report.

Tommy,
Mayer Amchel Rohtschild had via bribery, full controll over the Frankfurt main post office, letters sent from whom to whom, their content etc. This gave the Rohtschilds immense and unfair controll and power to manipulate people, nations and politics. So typical of the aschenazi jews, who are frankist (satanists), not at all follovers of the Torah as such. Given that post ww2 Germany is a zionist controlled state, no surprises here.
Employees of the Ministry of Economic Development were forbidden to use Zoom and WhatsApp on work issues,

Meanwhile massive DDOS attacks from Ukraine on Russian infrastructure. Full cyberwar.
Some US Senators wanted to shut the entire Russia Internet off – even Jake Sullivan had to refuse that.
So far sites are accessible , Distributed Denial of Service attacks escalate.
IPv6 will only extend their ‘options’….
Telegram has recently been complying with laws, at least a little bit Even if the company claims the opposite: Telegram has given user data to the BKA, according to SPIEGEL information. The government sees this as a success, yet Telegram continues to disregard German regulations.

That looks like some kind of a warrant is needed, specific cases.
Zerohedge blocked on my computers using safari. Several complicated reasons etc.( Google)
No idea why, l don’t read about transgender porn, bombs or Republicans.
It works on DuckDuckGo.
But I do get my other news off The Saker and Sputnik. Who could l possibly blame? Putin maybe.
ZH is never blocked. It has its own search button.
Thanks for that.
Then it has to be the modem that’s faulty which the telco denies.
Will see them Monday morning.
They accept my money every month, yet get angry when the tech they sell does not work and their staff do not fully understand it. However fully trained is signing people up for 24 month contracts.
In the EU I am already furious about the blocking of RT and sputnik. I have subscribed for years to strategic culture, and now get from it or any articles in it from other sources a big “403 forbidden” plus Russian messages. No way of reading at all. Democracy and free speech in zone A!!!
The problem at STC is IPv6 – turn it off on the PC.
It looks like the DNS entry for IPv6 points to a STC development server.
And everyone knows the Internet is basically VPN’s (demonized) – to block them all would put out the lights.
Say hello to the FBT !
The Federal Bureau of Tweets: Twitter Is Hiring an Alarming Number of FBI Agents

What will Musk say about this, I wonder – the sale is not yet through….
What will Musk say about this, I wonder – the sale is not yet through….
[Wagging finger] “I expect a good return on my investment. Just give me a list of the increased resources you need.”
Musk NEVER stated he was against the state (laws).
All he said he wanted to stop the /in effect illegal/ censorship. So not promise break there.
Actually, his whole bid to take Twitter private would be a great strategic move by letters to stem the ongoing mass exodus of non-conformist posters. It is WAY better to have them use a platform you use – and control – than have the users move to platforms outside your control. Simples.
And that is fine. Having T as the global idea marketplace for NON-POLITICAL content is absolutely fine. And those fools who see it is a the square for political proclamations – well, they have been warned.
Telegram is fine for following channels and getting lots of info from differing sources in the same space but its like everything else you have to use critical thinking faculties. I rarely use it for messaging friends just following channels, including the MFA, MoD and Marias own channel of course!
I hate telegram.com anyway. It only works with cellphones, you have to give up your cellphone number to use it, etc.
Seconded, vociferously.
Amarynth: We all started using Telegram No we didn’t. Couldn’t you post non-telegram links. A minority of telegram links can be opened in a browser, at least enough to see something – but with the MOD you get nothing at all. Actually with most of the telegram links you post, Amarynth, you get nothing at all in a browser.
– Telegram is centralised
– Telegram is just a smartphone messenger
– The company is sitting in Saudi Arabia (US vassal)
– Telegram’s encryption sucks big time
– Pavel Durov is a WEF young global leader!!!
Alternative: Matrix/Element
– Open source
– Decentralised
– Federated
– Strong E2EE with Audit
– Text, audio and video chat, filesharing and screensharing
– Threads are coming
– You can write your own clients and servers
– Bridges to other chat platforms and widgets for other internet services (like cryptpad!!!)
You can say so but you must go and build alternatives for Russia then. At the moment, all formal Russian sites are on telegram. And Pavel is not a young global leader .. just go there and search. https://www.younggloballeaders.org/community

Who does not know that taking ALL your freedoms is part of “their” end game?
