>"To this day, we have disclosed 0 bytes of user data to third parties, including governments."

If a government agent asks for certain user data, a Telegram employee does a search and have it on their screen for the government agent to see. How many bytes would you say Telegram has disclosed?

The exact number of bytes I wouldn't know, but they would certainly have disclosed all the information that was rendered on screen at that moment.
