Brazil has withdrawn the decision to block Telegram The head of the Supreme Court of Brazil, Alexander de Moraes, canceled an earlier signed decision to block the Telegram messenger in the country. Moraes explained that the administration of the messenger…
Lifting the lockdown in Brazil: everything you need to know
On March 18, 2022, a Brazilian Supreme Court judge ruled to block Telegram in the country. That same night, Pavel Durov apologized to the court and asked to delay the ban of the messenger. Three days later, Brazil withdrew its decision to ban Telegram. Let's try to understand the current situation.
Immediately after first messages about the upcoming ban of Telegram in Brazil appeared, the messenger team sent an e-mail to the Brazilian court.
The letter states:
— Telegram blocked 14 channels at the request of the Brazilian court.
— Telegram blocked 19 channels containing similar information.
— In February 2022, Telegram blocked 3 more channels at the request of the court.
— Telegram's global search no longer returns results when searching for "allan dos santos" or similar terms.
— None of these Telegram channels received any monetization.
— The creators of the channels @allandossantos, @tercalivre and @artigo220 were accounts with addresses: @allansantosbr and @allandsantos (these usernames were sent in the block request).
What Telegram has promised to do in the future:
— ToS update.
— New features for reporting fake news.
— Permanent bans of channel owners for spreading misinformation.
The reason for restricting access to channels and individual posts was harsh criticism of the actions of the Supreme Court of Brazil.
If Telegram will ever receive a court order confirming you are suspected of terrorism, if the arguments of the court will be satisfying Telegram's requirements, it may disclose your IP address and phone number to the relevant intelligence agencies.
So far, there have been no such cases. If such a case occurs, information about this will be published on the @transparency channel.

The government of Udmurtia (federal subject of Russia) made an appeal to Pavel Durov
The Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic asked to reduce the minimum cost of advertising on the official advertising platform Telegram Ads, as well as to add the ruble as a currency with which payments can be made.
In his opinion, an advance payment of €2,000,000 euros "makes it impossible for most entrepreneurs to access this service."

German authorities notified Telegram of cases launched against the company
German authorities have notified Telegram of two cases that were launched against it. The company is facing fines of 55 million euros for violating the law on countering incitement to hatred.
Legislation on countering incitement to hatred and harassment on social networks implies that the messenger company must establish an "effective and transparent" mechanism to respond to complaints about illegal content, as well as appoint a representative in the country with whom German agencies could maintain contact.
Earlier, the country's interior minister stressed that the German government had agreed with Telegram to cooperate further and to continue to exchange views. Constructive talks resulted in 64 groups being banned for anti-Semitism and incitement to hatred.

Telegram becomes part of Brazil's "Fake News Program"
Following recent discussions, the parties have agreed to take steps to counter disinformation - within the resources and capabilities that the partner, Telegram, provides to carry out these actions. The document is signed free of charge, without any financial obligations or transfer of resources between Telegram and TSE.
According to the document, Telegram also undertakes to keep and necessary secrecy regarding the information to which the company has access within the TSE.
During the negotiations, it was about the account of Allan dos Santos, one of the closest associates of Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro. He is a suspect in the case of spreading fakes and attacking judges.
Meta, TikTok, and YouTube are among the signatories. The program was launched in August 2019 as a way to prepare for the 2020 elections.

Sneak Peek at Telegram Web Bots
Telegram started to test web bots, which are similar to inline bots, but still have some key differences:
— Pressing a bot button will open a third-party website inside Telegram.
— The website receives some key colors of your theme so it can adapt to look like a part of the app.
— The web bot can be pinned to the Attachments menu. When you select it from there, Telegram passes your current chat info to the website.
— Avatars are passed into the website as hotlinks, so they can be easily injected.
— Website can pass up to 4096 bytes of data to the bot, which is a record: inline buttons can carry up to 64 bytes of payload.
— Web bots can send messages of any attachment type available to inline bots on behalf of the user with a "
— Developers will have to develop the communication API between the bot and the website on their own.

An example of a Web bot for food delivery
In the code of the public beta version of Telegram for Android, the name of the test Web bot was mentioned. This is a fictional food delivery service "Durger King".
In the native @DurgerKingBot interface, you can place an order with a few clicks, accompany it with a comment, and pay for the purchase using the payment information saved in Telegram or via Google Pay.
This is just a demo. The possible applications for Web bots are countless, and some of them we already wrote about in an article on the topic.

Telegram grows in China despite lockdown
Telegram's popularity in China began to grow in February 2020, when Chinese authorities tightened censorship of Covid-19 conversations on popular domestic platforms such as WeChat and Weibo. In search of alternative sources of information, some people turned to Telegram and others to Signal. Telegram installations in China grew 64% that month to 110,000 according to the Sensor Tower at the South China Morning Post, while Signal installations grew 70% to 17,000.
Telegram downloads also spiked last summer as former US President Donald Trump tried to ban WeChat in the US, prompting users to look for other ways to stay with friends and family in China. WeChat is normally the go-to tool for communicating with people in China, it is apparently used by everyone, and as a Chinese app, it works reliably within the country, but it must comply with local laws such as those that allow authorities to access the data of users who make some turn up their noses.

Most ideas for Web bots won't come true in the near future
Earlier, Telegram Info team made an article exploring the possibilities of the new Web bot platform. Alas, we won't be able to see most of the proposed integrations in the foreseeable future.
The ability to open Web interfaces within Telegram is available to everyone and essentially duplicates the features of the Telegram game platform, which was launched in 2016.
The official Web bots documentation states that "Attachment menu integration is currently only available for major advertisers on the Telegram Ad Platform." This means that the new feature will only be available to literally a few developers, mentioning the fact that in order to participate in the Ad Platform you need to have at least €2,000,000 at your disposal.
Thus, the Attachment menu integration is an option only for large companies participating in the Ad Platform or for developers that are close to Telegram, and it works only in private chats.
The food ordering bot @DurgerKingBot was developed by the Telegram team to demonstrate the new feature. Ironically, in reality this bot wouldn't have been able to get this feature, since fast food ads are banned by Telegram's Ad Platform rules.
The platform is already seeing some problems: the bot's web pop-up blocks interaction with the app's main window, which makes it useless for, for example, a video calls bot: you can't use Telegram and communicate with the person you're talking to via call at the same time. Also, the Telegram team did not offer a standardized library for creating interfaces, so different bots may look different and not fit in the application's overall design.
Telegram Info team believes that the feature was originally intended as an exclusive opportunity to integrate TON Coin with Telegram, although there is no direct evidence of that. The opinion, in particular, is based on the fact that TON actively uses Telegram's advertising platform. TON developers have already implemented similar functionality themselves as a browser extension for the Web versions of Telegram.
In its documentation, the Telegram team does not hint at the possibility of extending access to the feature in the future. It is likely that the ability to integrate into the Attachment menu will remain exclusive to "closely related" bots, and we will not see integrations like "pick files from Google Drive and send them in Telegram".
