Free speech and online privacy: Pavel Durov's rise to the top

Telegram founder and free speech advocate Pavel Durov was born on Oct. 10, 1984, in St. Petersburg, Russia, and demonstrated an early knack for computer science, culminating in the entrepreneur establishing several successful online social media platforms.While studying at Saint Petersburg State University, Durov became inspired by the success of the Facebook social media site and its founder, Mark Zuckerberg — eventually starting the social media platform VKontakte (VK) in 2006.VK is a platform similar to Facebook but geared toward Russian speakers, and it is one of the largest social media platforms in the world.A picture of Pavel Durov as a teenager.

Since then, the platform has garnered over 950 million users worldwide due to its privacy-enhancing technology, which encrypts messages end to end.Telegram also has robust features that include decentralized web surfing, a torrent of mini-apps and games.The platform also has a symbiotic relationship with The Open Network (TON) — a separate blockchain network that has become a staple for users of the messaging application.The Telegram founder discussing messaging applications at TechCrunch’s Disrupt conference. Source: TechCrunchAccording to Forbes, the Telegram founder has a net worth of $17.1 billion as of March 16, 2025 — mainly through his ownership of Telegram.In March 2024, the entrepreneur announced that Telegram was nearing profitability and was considering an initial public offering to become a publicly traded company.Pavel Durov is a libertarian and has infused the liberty-minded ethos into Telegram. In a January 2025 post, Durov wrote:"I am proud that Telegram has supported freedom of speech long before it became politically safe to do so. Our values don’t depend on US electoral cycles."The Telegram founder's libertarian ethos, commitment to free speech, and privacy eventually put the entrepreneur in the crosshairs of the French government.Pavel Durov arrested in France amid cries of politically-motivated censorshipPavel Durov was arrested in France on August 24, 2024, due to a lack of content moderation on Telegram, and subsequently charged by French prosecutors with complicity with illegal activities and refusal to communicate with authorities.Durov speaks with independent news host Tucker Carlson about free speech and privacy shortly before his arrest in August 2024. Source: Tucker CarlsonShortly after his arrest, the Telegram founder posted bail and was released from custody on the condition that he remain in France during the legal proceedings.The arrest sparked widespread outrage among the crypto community and free speech advocates worldwide, who condemned the French government for using state power in an attempt to coerce Pavel Durov into censoring the platform or giving the government the Telegram encryption keys.French President Emmanuel Macron was accused of orchestrating a politically motivated arrest, a claim the French leader denied, which only prompted more backlash from the crypto community.On March 15, Pavel Durov reportedly left France and headed to Dubai, where Telegram is headquartered, after receiving permission from French law enforcement officials to leave the country.However, it is unclear how long Durov will remain in Dubai, as the global fight for freedom of speech, privacy, and autonomy continues.Magazine: Did Telegram’s Pavel Durov commit a crime?
