Indian telecom Reliance is sabotaging access to Telegram for millions of users OUTSIDE India (including the UAE) via a rogue method called BGP hijacking.
The sabotage seems intentional, as Reliance has ignored multiple reports.
This may be part of a competitive war, as Reliance is partially owned by Meta — the company behind WhatsApp.
Network operators are advised to reject unauthorized BGP announcements from Reliance (AS18101) to prevent route hijacks and ensure stable Internet access for their users.
Such abuse of global Internet routing is alarming. I wouldn’t be surprised if Reliance/WhatsApp were also behind the recent lobbying effort to ban Telegram in India.
No law can replace good parenting.
Parents already have the tools to limit kids’ digital consumption: parental controls, screen-time limits — or no smartphone at all.
Instead, many parents give toddlers iPads just to keep them quiet.
No amount of regulation will fix that.
On 4/3 National Ken Block Day, we honor the mentality that changed everything, raw, fearless, and uncompromising. The very ethos that also sparked KAMM’s 912 lineup and continues to define every build.
A tribute to @kblock43 and the legacy he left behind.
