French prosecutors are pursuing Telegram's founder Pavel Durov under a new cybercrime law, LOPMI, enacted in January 2023. This law aims to hold tech leaders accountable for illegal activities on their platforms, marking a significant shift in France's approach to internet regulation. While Durov faces serious charges, including complicity in facilitating illegal transactions, the law has yet to be tested in court, raising concerns over its implications for tech companies operating in France.
