I’m seeing some chatter from leftist meme pages (THE most reliable source of news on the internet /s) linking this to a leak of israeli data on telegram less than a week ago. Probably just a conspiracy theory, but thought it was relevant.

I hate the labelling of Telegram (and also, to be fair here, WhatsApp) as social media platforms.

That's like saying email is a social media platform because mailing lists exist.
