Telegram may be removed from app stores in Brazil
Brazil's Federal Prosecutor's Office addressed a letter to Apple and Google. In it, the authorities asked to remove the Telegram app from Brazilian App Store and Google Play.
Telegram has been a subject of some hot discussions in the Brazilian government lately. High-ranking officials suspect that the messenger is used to send disinformation and conspiracy theories than interfere in the electoral process.
Telegram, unlike other platforms like Twitter and WhatsApp, still has no representatives in Brazil. Authorities have made unsuccessful attempts to contact the company's headquarters to discuss measures the messenger could take "to ensure the security of this year's upcoming presidential elections".
