In Brazil, by decision of the Supreme Court, the Telegram messenger was blocked . This was reported by the founder of the application Pavel Durov.
Supreme Court Judge Alexandre do Moraes explained that " Telegram is notorious for its position of non-cooperation with judicial and police authorities in several countries" and cited the example of the messenger's refusal to comply with other court orders in Brazil.
According to Durov, the messenger “had a problem with sending emails” between corporate addresses and the Supreme Court of Brazil.
The court sent Telegram requests to the old email address; as a result, the messenger left the court without a response to the request to remove the content. team The Telegram found the letter and complied with the request by providing a report.
“Since tens of millions of Brazilians use Telegram to communicate with family, friends and colleagues, I ask the court to consider delaying the decision for a few days at its discretion so that we can correct the situation,” Durov wrote.
