The worst person you know made a good point.

Edit: barely privacy related because everything you do in a Telegram group is visible to Telegram administrators and will be controlled through their international partnerships. They already self-censored in Indonesia.

All telegram messages are sent unencrypted by default. It's possible to encrypt 1-on-1 chats by going through a convoluted process, but group messages can't be encrypted.

If you care about privacy at all, don't use telegram.
