STOP using Telegram and START using ...

STOP USING Telegram; and why it has never been the 'safe and private' platform it claims to be. Telegram has relied on a fundamentally flawed security model since its inception, exposing users to potential surveillance and privacy violations.

Recent developments have confirmed that Telegram is willing to hand over users' data to law enforcement with little resistance. Telegram's founder, Pavel Durov, has shown time and time again that he's more interested in appeasing authorities than protecting user privacy. In this video, I explain precisely why Telegram isn’t the privacy app many believe it to be, from its lack of default end-to-end encryption to its centralized infrastructure vulnerable to government pressure.

But don’t worry, I’m not leaving you hanging. I'll also cover some great privacy-focused alternatives like Signal, Briar, Session, and Matrix that provide real encryption and security for your communications. Whether you’re concerned about personal privacy, avoiding surveillance, or want a better secure messaging app, this video will guide you through the best options out there.

Here's what we'll discuss in this video:

Telegram’s Flawed Encryption: How server-side encryption puts your data at risk.
End-to-End Encryption: Why Apps like Signal do it right, and Telegram doesn’t.
Metadata Collection: How your activity can be tracked even without message content.
Alternatives to Telegram: Exploring Signal, Briar, Session, Matrix, and more—apps that offer real privacy and or anonymity.
If you're serious about your digital security, watch this video. I’ll explain why staying on Telegram makes you an easy target for surveillance and why switching to a better app is crucial for maintaining your privacy online.
