✅ The Telegram Login SDK now supports native iOS and Android apps.📱

🤩 Only Telegram lets developers verify users’ phone numbers for free — something that’s otherwise expensive. 🫰

🍴 Expect more apps adding “Continue with Telegram"! 🚀

🎁 Our new Login Widget is a gift to developers: they can not only quickly authorize users, but also request users’ phone numbers and permission to message them on Telegram.

🆓 Sign-up, login, phone verification, and a follow-up communication channel in one — completely free.

🇪🇺 The EU wants to force mandatory ID checks on anyone using social media — and ban people under 18 from accessing it. To that end, the EU Commission spent over a year building an “age verification app”, which its president pompously unveiled yesterday.

Today, this app got hacked in just 2 minutes.

But don’t rush to laugh at EU bureaucrats.

Their age verification app was hackable by design — it trusted the device (that’s instant game over). Unless the EU is run by clowns 🤡, this is their real plan:

Step 1 — Present a “privacy-respecting” but hackable app.
Step 2 — Get hacked (*YOU ARE HERE*).
Step 3 — Remove privacy to “fix” the app.

Result — a surveillance tool sold as “privacy-respecting”.

The EU bureaucrats needed an excuse to silently start turning their “privacy-respecting” age verification app into a surveillance mechanism over all Europeans using social media. Today’s “surprising hack” just handed this excuse to them.

🦇 Stay vigilant!
