Telegram has removed multiple channels hosting deepfake porn starring local South Korean women.

The company apologized for its late response to the police's request and provided authorities with a dedicated email where they can report future crimes.

It's a surprise how responsive to law enforcement investigations a platform can get after you arrest its CEO. Shocking, right? :nigmathink: :nigmathink: :nigmathink: :nigmathink:

The Russian government is now fully blocking access to YouTube. It was previously just throttling its traffic.
A full block was initially expected in September but was accelerated after Ukrainian forces took control of Kursk, and the site began hosting videos of Russian soldiers surrendering en masse and without fighting
