"French court released Durov after his decision to sell Telegram to Microsoft": true or fake?
"Pavel Durov released from custody in Paris after absurd arrest"
Friends, another rumor about Pavel Durov is wandering around the Internet like the ghost of communism...
This time, the founder of Telegram allegedly sold his company in exchange for freedom.
This news is being spread on Pikabu, VK and MirTesen.
Here is the gist of the news, the original source of which is the Panorama news agency.
The founder of the Telegram messenger Pavel Durov was unexpectedly released from custody in Paris, where he was arrested on the evening of August 24. The decision to release him was made by the Paris Criminal Court, which found all charges brought against Durov to be unfounded.
"We deeply regret the incident that occurred," said Deputy Paris Prosecutor Charles Laten. "It was an unfortunate mistake, and the guilty law enforcement officers will be punished accordingly."
Durov himself expressed satisfaction with the court's decision and thanked the French authorities for the prompt investigation. In addition, the entrepreneur announced a large-scale press conference, at which he plans to share details about his recent trip to Paris and reveal unexpected details about the future of Telegram.
As it became known from Durov's message on the social network Facebook (banned in the Russian Federation), the purpose of his visit to France was to meet with representatives of Microsoft Corporation. According to the entrepreneur, he is in the process of negotiating the sale of a controlling stake in Telegram to the American technology giant. The deal is expected to close soon and will be one of the largest acquisitions in the IT sector.
"I am pleased to announce that Telegram has found a reliable partner who will help us develop and reach new heights," Durov wrote.
According to the French publication L'Humanité, the deal is valued at $5 billion. At the same time, Pavel Durov will retain his post as CEO of Telegram for at least the next year.
"A grotesque parody of reality"
Original source of the news - IA "Panorama". This is an agency of satirical news - news that could theoretically happen in reality, but did not.
Moreover, under each "news" on the panorama.pub website there is a disclaimer:
All texts on this website are grotesque parodies of reality and are not real news
This news is a fictional version of further events in Pavel's life.
What could have happened to him if the French authorities and big business had put pressure on him and blackmailed him.
And now some parallels with reality come to mind.
Parallels from 2014
Having scrolled down Pavel's VK account vk.com/durov all the way to 2014, we found his posts regarding the times when he was forced to leave VK (then VKontakte). And after that - leave Russia.
Here is a timeline of events according to his posts. They are posted in Pavel's account one after the other, I display them here "without editing".
December 13, 2023: a demand to provide personal data of Euromaidan activists. Durov refused.
March 13, 2014: a demand to close Alexey's group. Pavel refused again.
April 21, 2014: "VKontakte" comes under the full control of IS and AU. Durov resigns as CEO.
It seems that Panorama has mastered Aesopian language to perfection and models its grotesque parodies, still based on reality.
My respects.
