There is a law of nature, Nothing in this world that is equal. If we have light, then there's darkness, if some planets rotate clockwise, then some planets also rotate anti-clock wise. If we are happy then sometimes we are also sad. This law of the nature never gonna change, and this is the reason why we have life and also the reason behind the creation of new things.

The time is changed and still changing. First, we were using AOL, Yahoo, Skype or other messenger on our PC to communicate with our friends and families. Since the smartphone came into this world, everything is now in our pocket. Sometimes i think how lucky we all are, witnessing the beginning of all these technologies that gonna change lives of our future generation.

Same thing applies to technology. We got problems then we also have solutions and when we have solutions then we got problems. That's how all those big room computers turned into the size of our palm.

In today's world, making all these technologies safer and secure is a big problem. There is always a fear if someone access our personal information's and this fear raised even more after NSA whistle blower Edward Snowden incident. Nearly 1.4 billion data records were stolen by hackers or lost during 2016. Big tech companies making false claims about how much they keep your information secure. But believe it or not they just make us fool.

In the mid of 2013, Pavel Durov (Founder of Russia's biggest social network VK) launched a private and secure messaging app called Telegram. Telegram is heavily encrypted cloud based messenger runs on multi-data center infrastructure.

With Telegram, you can send messages, photos, videos and files of any type (doc, zip, mp3, etc), as well as create groups for up to 30,000 people or channels for broadcasting to unlimited audiences. You can write to your phone contacts and find people by their usernames. As a result, Telegram is like SMS and email combined — and can take care of all your personal or business messaging needs. In addition to this, Telegram support end-to-end encrypted voice calls. Telegram encryption is based on 256-bit symmetric AES encryption, 2048-bit RSA encryption, and Diffie–Hellman secure key exchange.

Almost every terrorist organizations use this messenger because it's secure and Telegram does not provide any information about user to government organizations or third parties. Telegram has a bot called "isiswatch" where everyday they post how many accounts run by terrorist groups have been deleted.

Pavel Durov had to escape from his own country because Putin's government officials wanted to control VK. In an interview Durov told that he first started thinking about leaving Russia in 2011 when a SWAT team showed up at his door with guns after he refused to shut down the profiles of opposition politicians. He didn't answer the door, but they remained outside for over an hour. Two years later, Durov realized that allies of President Vladimir Putin had bought 48% of the company, despite the fact that he was supposed to have right of first refusal.

In June 2017 when Durov and his developer team was in the US, US Intelligence agencies tried to bribe Telegram developers to create a backdoor into the Telegram messenger. He also tweeted about Signal app and claimed that it has been funded by the US government and they are creating a backdoor into it.

The encryption of Signal (=WhatsApp, FB) was funded by the US Government. I predict a backdoor will be found there within 5 years from now.
