Probably easier to do rather than laying your line through different jurisdictions and plots of someone’s property.

1. What lead you to dive into examining Telegram?
2. How would you use it if abandoning it is not an option, safety-wise, on android? Like, opening it in browser instead, killing app from the background, or using some app\tool? Not using it for anything sensitive is obvious.
3. What are other potential worms is in there you may think of? Recently, Yandex and Meta analytics tools got caught in sending browsing data to phone’s localhost - where their locally installed apps caught it and sent back home. If the FSB conection is that deep, there is no end to what they’d want to mine from users.

It’s not the first time I see your discovery shared and I want to thank you. It won’t completely disencourage people around me from using it but it’d pile up with other many reasons to do so. Someday there would be just enough of them, like it happened with VK, Facebook etc, I believe.

One person collected\created a ton of them and started to post them in droves to set a trend other would follow for a while. While the amount of them is moderate by reddit standards, smaller Lemmy userbase and it’s c/shitpost community got quite overwhelmed with that, up to the point you can’t scroll for a minute without seeing another moth meme. People got divided over the mothposting as you can see in that thread, with some choosing to ban\downvote\report them arguing they aren’t fun, too numerous and are mostly from one account, similarly to spam\flood; and some like me found it as a field for humor\creativity while bored, an event akin to what I’ve enjoyed back on r/196.

I’m not informed of any deep meaning or conspiracy theory behind it, it’s just a silly posting routine probably being someone’s project. But you can draw weird conclusions yourself, like it being a lamp seller’s campaign in the summer when their demand takes a nosedive due to more sun hours each day (yay, Lemmy’s so popular it has ad campaigns!); or, you know, it may be a commentary on how human race is captured by the idea of a weaponized atom that may eventually end it - and this is relevant when discussing the ongoing ME conflict that some see as a WW3\NewVietnam starter.

Do with that information what you will. Now that I think of it, it could be funny if the original mothposter wrote your post instead, so people mildly annoyed with their little mischief got to write a reply and then got an Aha moment recognising the username in a different community. Maybe the mothperson is you?

It’s not a gotcha you think it is, and it’s so tired it needs a wheelchair to move.

Iran from local problems.

Who are you to me again? Are you thick in the head?

You won’t find ANY ruskie who will be against Russia-Ukraine war, Putin AND the annexation of Crimea.

We exist. But it’s right to asume one is a bastard or an indifferent enabler until proven otherwise. That’s a given.

You aren’t wrong, and that high that I suspect you have a pair of wings yourself (:

but the people know, and that’s all that matters to me!

Yeah, sure.

I’d keep it as it is, but won’t write it again like this, ty.

I can waste all day naming USSR wrongdoings, but at the beginning their leaders had a medieval country that was ages before it’s peers in any sense, thanks it’s monarchs, and while some of them were shooting Machno guys, exiling intellectuals and creating proto-ICE from poverty commitees, I can not deny their literacy and infrastructure powermoves. If monarchy lasted up until now, I doubt we’d have an accessible school and electricity provider in every god-forgotten place. I could’ve also mentioned healthcare, but the little fuck and his co-leeches toned it down in the last ten years.

Woah 😲

At least some unique gimmick in the time when all smartphones are just screens with no individuality.

Check another person missclicked to the top level or the link other user dropped.

Basically, a surface level of knowledge is just shadows on the cave’s wall that could be projected by someone interested in fooling you. Unless you question the nature of things, you’d not leave a cave, and won’t probably even question your perception. Just like Morpheus, his pills and references to going down the rabbit hole like Alice did.

I’d consider this option, thank you.

The Light comes in unexpected ways. Sometimes like waves, but also like particles. Trully a crowning jewel of our existence.

I’d argue that to make another dumb conspiracy theory, like the one that claimed the birds are real.

Thinking about that now, it’s one of the most long-running and popular media-things concerning ‘deep state’ fears before 2016. And while The X-Files ended, and for someone like me ended too late, one that toppled it is still running around on coke and hamberders having the most unpenetrateable fanbase ever. Why it’s not Firefly but Taco having a second season?

Audible have a great audiobook collection on them. I really liked how all characters sounded in them. If you are to sail the seas, I can PM you a link.

It’s a rare pleasure to see another soul who knows about them (:

Or Mulder is a subj of MK Ultra 2.0, and he naturally can not believe the only real conspiracy is him being drugged and exposed to fake leads and evidence. His father, the originator of that program, thought they’ve created a batch of people immune to mind control and mind altering through procedures his son doesn’t remember well. Skully learns and exposes the scheme to him and he turns on her and other people thinking he’s the insane one while only he know The Truth. Plot narrowly misses a point, where out-of-mind federal cop with access to weapons, data and training could do what USA is sadly famous for.
