Today I'm looking for clarity on the context in which @Apple requested @Telegram take down protestor channels in Belarus. Apple have reportedly denied the actions as described by Telegram, but something rotten is certainly going on.
I'll keep this thread updated. >>
The story as it played out started with reports like these:

And then reports of Apple claiming not to have requested channels be taken down, only specific messages. Which can of course be sufficiently problematic.
