📛 Iranian Government slow down Telegram media download.

TEHRAN – In an official statement released by the Iran's Supreme National Cyberspace Council, the local content delivery network (CDN) servers, which host Telegram content, are being shut down in the country.

Telegram has yet to confirm that the blocks are in place or whether it has moved its technical infrastructure out of Iran.

✊ 04/30/2018. Some 10,000 people were rallying in Moscow on Monday to protest against recent restrictions on internet freedom in Russia.

Russian authorities this month began blocking popular messaging app Telegram over its refusal to hand over keys to its data encryption.

📛 Two of today's biggest cloud service providers (Amazon & Google) are now blocking a technique called "domain fronting" that has been used by websites and applications to avoid government-based censorship, but also by malware to secretly siphon stolen data to covert servers.
⁠⁠
Based on the statements issued by both Amazon and Google, the banning of domain fronting has nothing to do with Russia's recent attempts to ban Telegram, during which Russia's communications watchdog ordered ISPs to block nearly 20 million IPs belonging to Amazon and Google's cloud services.

Signal has published a blog post revealing that Amazon has threatened to kick the IM app off its servers if it doesn't stop using domain fronting.
