Telegram CEO Pavel Durov has sharply criticized French authorities for his arrest in August 2024, calling it "legally and logically absurd." Durov was detained over alleged criminal activity on his messaging platform, which he claims involved users he had never encountered. Despite no evidence of wrongdoing by Durov or Telegram, he remains under judicial supervision, required to report to French officials every 14 days.
Durov's arrest has drawn significant attention, with the tech mogul arguing it damages France's reputation as a free society. "The only outcome of my arrest has been massive damage to France’s image," he stated. The case highlights the growing tension between platform accountability and user actions in the digital age.
