Snap out of that mindless Telegram bashing loop, will you?

If anything, this CEO departure only shows that HN got the motivation for Telegram completely wrong. The assumption behind that gang up was that Telegram was trying to sabotage online privacy, because what else a Facebook-like entity may be doing in the domain of secure communications. Guess what? There was more to the picture than met the eye.

There was no assumption of sabotage that I saw. Just a bunch of stubbornness while ignoring security expert's suggestions, followed by a compromise of their highly touted security.

What part did I miss?
