According to George Barros of the Washington-based Institute for the Study of War think tank, the 39-year-old Durov left the nation in 2014 after he allegedly refused to turn over the encryption keys, and the Kremlin has been attempting to obtain Telegram for years to expand its power to censor and control the content on the app.

Court revives Sarah Palin's libel lawsuit against The New York Times
federal appeals court revived Sarah Palin's libel case against The New York Times on Wednesday, citing errors by a lower court judge, particularly his decision to dismiss the lawsuit while a jury was deliberating. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan wrote that Judge Jed S. Rakoff's decision in February 2022 to dismiss the lawsuit mid-deliberations improperly intruded on the jury's work. It also found that the erroneous exclusion of evidence, an inaccurate jury instruction and an erroneous response to a question from the jury tainted the jury's decision to rule against Palin. It declined, however, to grant Palin's request to force Rakoff off the case on grounds he was biased against her. The 2nd Circuit said she had offered no proof.

Who was the surprise guest at the DNC 2024? It turns out to be Covid-19; here's why
Perhaps at the Democratic National Convention, there was an unexpected guest. Following several convention attendees' positive COVID-19 respiratory illness tests last week in Chicago, health officials are worried about a spike in infections. People also disclosed their diagnoses on social media. Several online users who voiced concerns regarding the possible COVID-19 outbreak during the conference had social media profile pictures of themselves wearing masks. The extent of the virus's spread during the four-day party event in Chicago last week is currently unknown. For the convention, tens of thousands of people gathered in the Windy City. The United Center, the location of the major speeches, can hold roughly 20,000 people, although a precise head count was not immediately available, as quoted in a report by The New York Post.
