Telegram founder and CEO Pavel Durov stated that the sharing of criminals\u2019 IP addresses and phone numbers with authorities has been in effect since 2018. Durov clarified his previous statement on his Telegram channel on October 2 regarding the sharing of IPs and phone numbers of accounts involved in criminal activity.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy previous post might make you think that I\u2019m announcing a major change in how Telegram works. But in fact, not much has changed,\u201d Durov said, emphasizing that the sharing process has been ongoing for a long time.<\/p>\n

IP Addresses and Phone Numbers Revealed Since 2018 Durov noted that Telegram has been able to disclose criminals\u2019 IP addresses and phone numbers to authorities since 2018, in accordance with the privacy policies of various countries.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we receive a properly constructed legal request through authorized channels, we would verify it and disclose the IP addresses\/phone numbers of dangerous criminals. This process has been in place long before last week,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n

Durov shared data from Telegram\u2019s Transparency Bot, showing how user data is disclosed to authorities. For example, in the first quarter of 2024, Brazil responded to 75 legal requests, while India responded to 2,461.<\/p>\n

Telegram\u2019s Core Principles Have Not Changed<\/h2>\n

While Durov emphasized that Telegram\u2019s privacy policies have been more harmonized across countries, he said Telegram\u2019s core principles have not changed. He noted that the company has always tried to act in compliance with local laws, but that these laws should not conflict with the values \u200b\u200bof freedom and privacy.<\/p>\n

\u201cTelegram was built to protect activists and ordinary people from corrupt governments and corporations \u2014 we will not allow criminals to abuse our platform or evade justice,\u201d Durov added. Durov\u2019s statement came after lawsuits were filed in France in August against the CEO over illegal activities.<\/p>\n
