China, one of the countries that is always on the agenda with its radical moves, this time brought a comprehensive ban on Telegram. The country, which also blocked WhatsApp and Threads applications last week, seems to have targeted Telegram this time.

While it is a great surprise that the company, which is essentially a Russian company, is treated the same as American companies, it is said that the Chinese administration will not allow applications other than domestic messaging applications in the coming period. Here are the most important details about the subject…

China imposed a ban on Telegram

Claiming that very dangerous espionage activities are carried out in foreign messaging applications, the Chinese administration states that they will do everything they can to prevent this. Apple, which had to comply with the ban decision, removed Telegram from its official App Store. Company founder Pavel Durov, who reacted greatly to this situation, claims that Apple is shooting itself in the foot and that at the end of the day, they will be the losers from this.

Predicting that Apple’s market share in China will decrease significantly with this decision, Durov stated that many Chinese users have already easily overcome all these bans thanks to applications such as VPN. Apple management has not yet made a detailed statement on the issue. We hope that this development will benefit users at the end of the day.
