Australian watchdog files legal action against Telegram, saying it failed to remove violent content

Australia’s online safety watchdog has filed legal action against Telegram, alleging the platform failed to remove extremist content including videos of white supremacist mass shootings in Buffalo and Christchurch, as well as Islamic State beheadings. Telegram denies the claims, stating it has blocked over 150,000 'terrorist-related communities' this year.
