Pavel Durov, the visionary founder and CEO of Telegram, has been unjustly imprisoned in France. Durov has been a staunch defender of free speech and digital privacy, creating a platform more than 900 million rely on to communicate without censorship. His detention is not just an attack on him but on the very principles of free expression that are vital in our digital age. We must raise our voices to demand his immediate release and protect the freedom of speech he has tirelessly championed.
