On August 19, Telegram revoked the public addresses of millions of channels around the world without warning their owners.
Those channels were often used as personal portfolios, public archives, and directories, which didn't need to post content often.
The process made many people upset and brought uncertainty to Telegram itself. Such actions without prior agreements with channel owners make Telegram less trustworthy to be used for any project.
The Telegram Info editorial board, @tginfo, and its international volunteers crew demand Telegram to:
• Return the confiscated public addresses back to their owners.
• Notify the owners of inactive channels about such actions.
• Allow users to claim public names that might be at risk.
If you want to participate in the petition, react with a 👍 to this post below and share this post with your audience. This is the only possible way to tell Telegram that the majority of its users are against this action.
Or if you think this action is a reasonable one, you can always react with a 👎, along with your thoughts about its advantages.
