Russian stuff blowing up: Russians panicking after the arrest of Telegram's founder/CEO

The big news of today isn’t from Ukraine. It’s from France, where French authorities have arrested Telegram founder and CEO Pavel Durov.

And the Russians are in full freak mode because telegram accounts for a lot of their military communications.




The freaking out among Russians is reaching hysterical levels.







Apparently there is fear among Russians that Western intelligence will now have access to all kinds of goodies on Telegram.
