Thank you for the translation. The report is wrong about Telegram's privacy statement though. The current privacy statement at https://telegram.org/privacy says "If Telegram receives a court order that confirms you're a terror suspect, we may disclose your IP address and phone number to the relevant authorities." However, in the next sentence it also claims "So far, this has never happened", which is clearly wrong and has been since at least 2022 (see my remark on the situation in Germany above). It then goes on to say "When it does [happen], we will include it in a semiannual transparency report published at: https://t.me/transparency." Maybe someone using Telegram could check out whether they published at least the German cases there, since those happened over a year ago.

Would be interesting to know the precise number of requests that Telegram replied to in the Netherlands. And also where else in the world this has already happened. I.e. according to NDR research, the German federal police BKA handed in 202 requests in 2022 and telegram answered 64 of them, handing over user data in 25 cases.
