if Telegram refuses to turn over the chat contents (which they do)
Source?
Law enforcement can’t just eavesdrop on the conversation without Telegram’s cooperation
Why do you think Roskomnadzor gave up their blockage plans in 2018? And then made their own official government channels? “It’s technically difficult for us” has never stopped Roskomnadzor before.
It’s not just “technically difficult” to eavesdrop. Properly implemented, it’s computationally impossible to eavesdrop on a connection secured with TLS.
There’s nothing in the article that says they refuse to disclose chat contents. In my own experience they often do so when receiving a proper request from governments, providing at least the last 24 hours of messages.
My comment regarding Roskomnadzor has nothing to do with encryption, but rather Telegram cooperates with them, and that’s why they stopped trying to block the platform. A little bit of reading comprehension would do you wonders.
