Telegram has failed: what is known

As a reminder, for several months now, Ukraine has been talking about the possible ban of the Telegram messenger, which has hundreds of pages for trading in prohibited goods: drugs, child pornography, weapons, and personal data. Anyone can buy what they need in 10 minutes.

Drug sales to Ukrainians on Telegram are mostly carried out by laboratories that produce them themselves. Less often, they delegate this to a third-party network of Telegram channels.
