Telegram CEO & Honey Pot Intel Asset Pavel Durov Arrested & Charged in France
- A Radical Reaction
1) Telegram CEO Pavel Durov Arrested and Charged in France
The CEO of the honey pot app Telegram, intel asset Pavel Durov has been arrested and charged in France.
Netanyahu simp Elon Musk has typically intervened on Twitter.
Seemingly oblivious to his own hypocrisy, as usual.
Others online have met this development with much naive protestation over “the loss of Western civilisation”.
The reality of the situation, as shall be revealed with receipts in this Radical Reaction, is that Pavel Durov is a billionaire intel asset running a honey pot operation while deceiving users into believing they are on an encrypted platform, so that his private company has access to all their data, posted in the belief that it was end-to-end encrypted.
Telegram was not encrypted. Read on.
2) With What is Telegram CEO Pavel Durov Charged?
Durov’s arrest by Macron’s France is clearly politically driven, but this does not absolve him from responsibility for the crimes of which he stands accused. Crimes against minors must not be ignored simply because we happen to agree politically with the accused. Read on.
Pavel Durov has been charged on twelve counts with the following:
Among the most concerning of these twelve charges are:
- Complicity - Possessing pornographic images of minors
- Complicity - Dissemination, offer or provision of pornographic images of minors by an by an organised group
French President Macron has protested that the arrest was not political.
This is obviously false.
Macron the globalist lost the French election yet remains in power and refuses to transition.
The only reason more “woe-be upon-us-our-civilisation-is-dying” online ‘group-think’ bros don’t care is because he lost to Melanchon’s far left and not to the far-right. Otherwise you’d see neo-fascists like French versions of Stephen Yaxley-Lennon (stage name: Tommy Robinson) provoking more riots over it.
Macron’s arrest of Pavel Durov is obviously political, most likely inspired by his platform hosting Israeli government leaks.
Haaretz reports 21st August 2024:
This is obviously a matter of concern.
Meanwhile, none of this absolves Pavel Durov of presiding over that cesspit of a honey pot app called Telegram. Two things can be true at once. Durov’s arrest can be at once political and politicised. The allegations involve real world crimes against minors which we refuse to ignore. On this, we await the evidence.
Meanwhile, Macron has no mandate to govern and must recuse himself with his obviously predatory ‘wife’ / handler who picked him up as his teacher when he was her student.
Our view on the matter is summarised below:
3) Responding to objections
Some have objected to our concerns around the crimes against minors that this intel asset and billionaire honey pot stands accused of.
We disagree.
Here’s why:
But what about other platforms that are guilty of the same?
Still. This does not absolve telegram of the same.
*note: last line should read “while other apps are not immune from your criticism for the same reason
And yet despite this, some persisted.
So we pushed back further, explaining the problem.
That billionaire Pavel Durov was a World Economic Forum (WEF) Young Global Leader should itself alarm those leaping to his defence. Such memberships are rarely granted by accident.
Unsatisfied, some went on to infer our position.
No, that’s not what we are saying.
This is:
Pavel Durov is a billionaire intel asset running a honey pot operation while deceiving users into believing they are on an encrypted platform, so that his private company has access to all their data, posted in the belief that it was end-to-end encrypted.
4) Telegram CEO Pavel Durov is an intel asset
Telegram was not encrypted. Read on.

The late internet security pioneer John McAfee:
“Good morning, John McAfee here. I am dissed constantly for using Gmail as my email system. Let me explain something to you. If you think you have any privacy whatsoever with an encrypted system, whether it's an email system like ProtonMail or an encrypted messaging system like Signal, you have no fucking privacy. Encryption was designed 35 years ago to prevent a man in the middle attack, meaning someone between your transmission and your receipt. There's no man in the middle anymore. We don't need them. Your fucking smartphone is the surveillance device preferred by every government on the fucking planet. Do you know how easy it is to plant malware? Go on Pornhub. If you've been on Pornhub, someone is now listening to you. All you have to do is do a drive-by of a website and it sets the download on authorised applications flag. The first click, you now have malware that is doing two things. Watching your inputs before they're encrypted and transmitting them. And reading the outputs after they are fucking encrypted, people. Encryption is a worthless piece of shit old technology that is being marketed as a safe system. There is no safety anymore. There is no privacy. I use Gmail for one reason. The last company that requires a fucking subpoena from the government in order to give them your information. And reading the outputs after they are fucking encrypted, people. Encryption is a worthless piece of shit old technology that is being marketed as a safe system. There is no safety anymore. There is no privacy. I use Gmail for one reason. The last company that requires a fucking subpoena from the government in order to give them your information.”
The above, by late internet security pioneer John McAffee, is about encryption generally.
But Telegram was specifically not encrypted. Read on.
Here’s the blog by Matthew Green referred to in Scott-Railton’s thread above:
“..Telegram clearly fails to meet this stronger definition for a simple reason: it does not end-to-end encrypt conversations by default. If you want to use end-to-end encryption in Telegram, you must manually activate an optional end-to-end encryption feature called “Secret Chats” for every single private conversation you want to have. The feature is explicitly not turned on for the vast majority of conversations, and is only available for one-on-one conversations, and never for group chats with more than two people in them…
..And even after this I was not able to actually have an encrypted conversation, since Secret Chats only works if your conversation partner happens to be online when you do this…
..Telegram knows its encryption is difficult to turn on, and they continue to promote their product as a secure messenger..
..My strong suspicion is that many people who join Telegram for its social media features also end up using it to communicate privately. And I think Telegram knows this, and tends to advertise itself as a “secure messenger” and talk about the platform’s encryption features precisely because they know it makes people feel more comfortable. But in practice, I also suspect that very few of those users are actually using Telegram’s encryption. Many of those users may not even realize they have to turn encryption on manually, and think they’re already using it…
..At the same time, Telegram CEO Pavel Durov has continued to aggressively market Telegram as a “secure messenger.” Most recently he issued a scathing criticism of Signal and WhatsApp on his personal Telegram channel, implying that those systems were backdoored by the US government, and only Telegram’s independent encryption protocols were really trustworthy.
While this might be a reasonable nerd-argument if it was taking place between two platforms that both supported default end-to-end encryption, Telegram really has no legs to stand on in this particular discussion. Indeed, it no longer feels amusing to see the Telegram organization urge people away from default-encrypted messengers, while refusing to implement essential features that would widely encrypt their own users’ messages. In fact, it’s starting to feel a bit malicious…“
Here’s a TL:DR summary of the article by Green himself.
The implications of this are severe for Telegram users.
Telegram chats are not encrypted by default. And its group chats cannot be end-to-end encrypted. This means that Durov had access to every group chat, and the vast majority of one on one chats, because - as explained above - making even the one on one chats encrypted requires four steps that are opaque and difficult to decipher, and only work when both users are online at the same time. This led Matthew Green to believe “it’s starting to feel a bit malicious.”
Now look at the charges again as above, which involve crimes against minors, and understand why we said this:
Pavel Durov cannot claim that he merely provided the platform while remaining free of the crimes.
And Durov cannot claim that his service is merely like a telecoms company. As of yet, private apps are not public utilities.
And we are not impressed by the whataboutery of the whatabouters:
Because:
Holding two thoughts is possible at the same time. Elon Musk himself should be careful for inciting - and amplifying accounts on his platform that incited - national riots in the UK.
Yes, Telegram CEO Pavel Durov appears to have been arrested by the corrupt globalist French authorities because he published inconvenient information on the corrupt globalist government in Israel.
He also appears to have facilitated severe criminal activity on his private platform, while allowing for it to become a honey pot in order to collect information on both political dissidents and criminals who shared severe criminal activity on his private platform. Durov had access to all of this information for himself.
Durov may have confirmed your political biases, but he may also be guilty of committing heinous crimes.
This is a bit like that other internet “hero” Andrew Tate.
