Local reports indicate that Indonesia, one of the largest users of Telegram globally, is considering a ban on the messaging platform due to its insufficient moderation of illegal content. Budi Arie Setiadi, Indonesia’s Minister of Communication and Informatics, claimed that authorities are considering blocking Telegram, the local news agency Jakarta Globe reported on Aug. 29. According to the minister, Indonesia is concerned about the distribution of illicit content on Telegram, including alleged involvement in promoting online gambling and spreading pornography. Local authorities are also considering a potential ban on Bigo Live, a global live-streaming app owned by Singapore-based Bigo Technology, alongside the Telegram messenger, due to similar allegations.
