Being compliant in international money laundering, organized crime, and child porn is not a freedom of speech issue.

If TELEGRAM is Pavel’s house, and these things happened in that house, and he promoted them by doing nothing about them, he’s just as guilty as the people who committed the crimes—maybe more.

Pavel Durov’s charges.
Holy shit.
He’ll flip on Putin if he already hasn’t.
You can’t hide this kind of criminality behind “free speech.”

And Putin is BIG MAD about charges 1, 8, 9, 10, and 11. That’s ALL facilitation of GRU/FSB chaos worldwide, and it makes me wonder if Pavel cut a deal with Frech DGSE.

The exploitation of profiteering off of child porn for the past decade (53k child exploitation groups are active on TELEGRAM with millions of members) is a universal no-no and a side door into everything, mainly because France already charged Pavel with noncompliance with a takedown request.

Pavel WILLINGLY submitted to DGSE. He knew there was a warrant out for his arrest. As a French Citizen, he knows he won’t get deported, and if you are Pavel, you’re not going back to Russia no matter what.

Pavel is now officially Window Bait in Russia. He’s never going back. Putin knows Pavel and refused to meet with him last week in Azerbaijan. Some OSINT estimate Pavel tried to meet with Putin to cut a deal, but when Putin refused, Pavel returned to cooperate with French authorities and said he was “singing like a bird.”

And A LOT of the Kremlins, “Useful Idiots,” are supporting Putin and Durov today.

And a few of them are shitting their pants because they think they might be next.

Elon is protesting the most. And the CEO of Bumble. LOL.

England threatened to arrest him if he went there, so expect him to go there for the PR.

Rich guys who hide behind social media privacy laws to absolve themselves of facilitating terrible shit. And governments who use them. That’s all this is to me.
