Criminal Content On Telegram Can Be Reported Telegram has added a feature to report private chats. After the arrest of the founder and Pavel Durov, the company introduced such a feature.
Previously, Telegram did not monitor private chats. However, after the arrest of Durov, the company was forced into a situation. Along with this, it has been made easy to identify illegal content. Not long ago, Telegram was described as a haven for criminals.
Now illegal content on Telegram can be easily reported through the ‘Report’ button. Similarly, Telegram has also removed the ‘People Nearby’ feature. Earlier, this feature was used to know other Telegram users near you. Now it is said that it has been removed to prevent bots and scammers.
Telegram has already informed us about this through its website. However, it is not yet clear how this new privacy policy will address legal offenses. Speaking to TechCrunch, a Telegram spokesperson said users can report group or private chats. He also expressed the belief that this will help to identify illegal materials quickly.
