Telegram founder: French Parliament rejects encryption backdoor bill, Telegram will never compromise user privacy

ChainCatcher news, Telegram founder Pavel Durov posted that the French National Assembly has rejected a proposed bill that would require messaging apps to set up law enforcement backdoors, making France not the first country to legislate against end-to-end encryption.

He emphasized that backdoor mechanisms threaten the privacy and security of all users, and Telegram would rather exit a market than compromise on encryption protection.
