Ekaterina Mizulina, Director of Russia’s Safe Internet League and Public Chamber member, has dismissed rumors of Telegram being blocked in Russia, stating “Let them remain rumors.” With over 825,000 Telegram subscribers, Mizulina asserted that restricting the messenger would be a “mistake,” calling it a “necessary tool for promoting meanings and a pro-Russian position.” While acknowledging dangerous content exists on all platforms, she noted Telegram has improved its moderation efforts recently. This follows her January prediction of TikTok’s return to Russia.
