>It was not done by VK. It was done by Pavel Durov after he escaped from Russia. It's Durov's bullshit. Telegram is developed one floor beneath the VK office in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. Moreover, Durov himself often visits the office. Sources: [1] [2] So yeah, between this and "MTProto is secure" I'm not sure if one can trust any other claim about Telegram's security (like "your chat logs are secure on our servers").

I wondered who is financing Telegram since it's really moving fast and it has no apparent source of revenue; it makes sense that it's even coming from Russian government, since they want alternatives to US-owned services.
