Sounds like a bunch of crap I don't want, and they're adding more crap according to this article. And if they are indeed going the way of WeChat, becoming a "super app" and partnering with Chinese and crypto companies, that makes me very nervous about privacy.
Not sure if you’ve used WeChat or any of the telegram app-platform features … it’s just web code that gets loaded in on demand. It’s not like the app is built with all this shit by default, it just loads customised HTML-like code when you activate an app.
.....and then everything you do and say gets monitored by the CCP......
