For the first time ever, Telegram Hands Over Data to Investigators
Analysis by @neo_network
As originally reported by SPIEGEL, a weekly German magazine - Telegram has handed over user data to the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA), which investigates crime, terrorism, threats to national security - etc.
In Telegram's Privacy Policy - they've stated:
"If Telegram receives a court order that confirms you're a terror suspect, we may disclose your IP address and phone number to the relevant authorities. So far, this has never happened."
Apparently, it just happened. Now we may wait for details on Telegram's semiannual transparency report: https://t.me/transparency
SPIEGEL reports that the CEO Pavel Durov and Telegram executives have been meeting with the Interior Ministry, with Durov taking the concerns of German government seriously. Telegram also has setup an e-mail address specifically for the BKA for investigative procedures. Up to a 100 reported hate/nationalist Telegram groups are no longer accessible from within Germany.
Is Telegram folding on their commitment to privacy, or are they folding under threat of being completely blocked in Germany? There doesn't seem to be a stop to the demands to stop 'right-wing extremist content', and Telegram could face fines of up to 55M euros.
- Closing thoughts
Although Telegram has always shared its vision of privacy for all of its users, they've also had the ability to collect IP address and phone numbers. Telegram has always been the bastion for the freedom movement, and now we are seeing the day where they are handing over user data.
I give them credit: as far as we know, this has never happened until they faced huge consequences, such as losing an entire country as a userbase.
At an operation of their size, there is no chess move to play - the options are, hand over user data, or get fined, blacklisted on the internet, and get your servers raided.
Are we going to see this pressure extended to the various freedom & health movements? Nobody knows. Perhaps eventually.
We can take responsibility for our situation in a few ways, and I've been saying these things for years:
- Minimize the amount of accurate info Telegram has on us (register with an anonymous phone number, use a VPN at all times)
- Move to more friendly, open platforms - with the potential to avoid IP logging and phone number collection (so, not Signal). Of course, I'm only referring to XMPP.
Are you using a VPN and/or XMPP? I invite you to start.

Telegram gibt Nutzerdaten an das Bundeskriminalamt
Auch wenn das Unternehmen das Gegenteil behauptet: Telegram hat nach SPIEGEL-Informationen Nutzerdaten an das BKA gegeben. Die Regierung verbucht das als Erfolg, trotzdem missachtet Telegram weiter deutsche Vorschriften.

LibreCellular: Open low-cost 4G Cellular Networks
@takebackourtech | https://takebackourtech.org
The LibreCellular project aims to make it easier to create 4G cellular networks with open source software and low cost software-defined radio (SDR) hardware. Seeking to achieve this via validated hardware and software configurations that are subjected to rigorous testing, together with additional tooling and documentation for repeatable deployment.
LibreCellular will build on the work of numerous existing open source software and hardware projects, related to both the cellular platform itself and associated test infrastructure. Where necessary additional components will be developed, with any software source code and hardware designs published under open source licences. The focus is very much on integration, testing, packaging and documentation, reusing and building upon existing solutions.

The Dystopian Surveillance State Agenda; Technocratic Slavery
Digital ID or Digital Prison - Presentation by Aman Jabbi.
Live streamed to Central Coast community NSW on 2nd June 2022.
Aman was at the forefront of video and camera technology in Silicon Valley and has co-founded two camera startups.
Aman has a BS in Electrical & Electronics Engineering and MS in Chemistry from BITS in India, an MS in Electrical Engineering from Penn State University and studied Computer Science at Stanford University.
Have a listen to hear more about the smart cities infrastructure and the unimaginable implications of it.
Newcastle is named as one of the first trial smart cities in Australia.
How can we mitigate this?
Here are the top things i recommend:
1. Use an Open Source OS for your PC like Ubuntu
2. Stop using any big tech platforms associated to your identity
3. Get rid of any 'Smart home' devices
4. Use a VPN
5. Get a "Degoogled" phone to stop your phone spying on you

Today i saw this in a JB HIFI retail store...
This is exactly why we need to be moving away from big tech's proprietary operating systems and apps completely.
Such an integration is insanity, i would have never imagined that people would accept the integration of such private information as that into Google's mountains of data on them.
If people continue to sacrifice privacy for convenience the next thing we know we'll be in a digital ID prison indistinguishable from the social credit score dystopia of Beijing.
i sell 'degoogled' phones to completely disable google's ability to track, spy and listen to people.

Firefox Multi-Account Containers
This is a good solution to simplify browser isolation without installing 3+ different browsers. It will always be superior to use different browsers but this can serve as a middle ground for general users or additional sub-isolation.
Multi-Account Containers lets you keep parts of your online life separated into color-coded tabs. Cookies are separated by container, allowing you to use the web with multiple accounts and integrate Mozilla VPN for an extra layer of privacy.
