Telegram began to accept complaints holders on bots
Perhaps, the rights holders complained about Telegram on Google, Apple and Roskomnadzor.
The administration of Telegram messenger added a paragraph for rightholders in the Service FAQ who would like to complain about copyright infringement when distributing content in public channels and using bots. The following has been added to the list of common questions: “The bot or channel violates my copyright. What should I do?".
At the same time, the administration of Telegram declares that it does not plan to consider complaints related to closed chat rooms, but accepts claims regarding such content distributors as bots, open channels. Claims regarding sticker sets are also accepted.
“All regular and group chats in Telegram are private from the point of view of their participants. We do not consider any complaints related to them. But stickers, channels and bots are publicly available objects. If you notice a bot, a channel or a set of stickers that violates your rights, please contact us at dmca@telegram.org. Please note that such requests should be sent only on behalf of the copyright holder or his authorized representative, ”the FAQ says.
Unfortunately, the scheme for the consideration of claims holders is not disclosed.
