Why Telegram ?
When comes to security Telegram holds more credibility than other Platforms. Two Russian brothers Nikolai and Poval Durov, developed and released it in Aug 2013. Their only motive behind making this app to make public communications secure.
Durov once said that ” The main reason to build Telegram was to create means of communication that can’t be accessed by the Russian security agencies.”
Whatsapp vs Telegram
According to many online surveys, most people think that Telegram is more secure than Whatsapp. Its secret chat feature allows users to chat anonymously.
Telegram uses local storage over cloud storage to store these secret chats. Also, these chats are self-destructive, like Snapchat messages. But this option is not available as the default. You have to enable it.
