| 17 |  😘 HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Telegram turns 13 today!
📌 The past year has once again shown just how difficult it is to remain an independent platform when governments, regulators, and the world’s biggest tech companies all have competing interests.
📌 It’s even harder at a time when the era of a single, global internet increasingly seems to be coming to an end.
📌 Whatever happens next, Telegram continues on its own path, holding firmly to its position. And in many countries, people continue to rely on it for many of the same reasons they always have.
📌 Protecting the right to privacy and freedom of speech remains at the heart of Telegram’s mission. Now we’ll see how the platform handles the challenges ahead.
