It is, and he has, but if you're following what's going on in the RUvsUA war, you can see that the authorities are absolutely using Telegram to identify dissenters and leaks.

    Hate to be supporting Telegram but I recall there also being some sort of Ukrainian Telegram bot meant to be used by Russian soldiers to safely give up and be taken to the other side, using the "share location" button. IDK how that's meant to work now that you need Tor tunnels to browse fucking Telegram in Russia, though. Phone roaming or something? Point is, both sides are trying to use it for their advantage.
