Monitoring is packaged as protection, a familiar script

ME News reports that Telegram founder Durov questioned the design conspiracy of the EU's newly launched "Age Verification App" on his personal channel, claiming it was cracked within 2 minutes of release, implying that bureaucrats deliberately created vulnerabilities first and then removed privacy protections under the guise of "enhancing security," thereby turning it into a surveillance tool for all social media users across Europe. Durov warned users to stay vigilant, expressing concern that this move could serve as an excuse for comprehensive surveillance.
