#Ukraine Considers Banning #Telegram if App is Confirmed as “Threat to National Security”
The Ukrainian parliament has been studying a bill since last week that threatens to shut Telegram down.
The measure, which has proven very unpopular but has garnered the support of deputies from four political groups in the Rada – 72% of Ukrainians use Telegram as their main source of information, a study found last year.
Ukrainian citizens can currently consult Telegram without limits, as opposed to surfing the internet or following news outlets regulated by Kiev’s media law.
PS. #France has quietly pushed blocking of telegram channels, the same in #Sweden and #Germany. But the app itself is still not banned here.
