电报（Telegram）拒绝与通讯及数码部配合，事因不想参与“任何形式的政治审查”。
电报发言人雷米沃恩 (Remi Vaughn)向《新海峡时报》发表一份声明指出，自推出以来，该信息应用程式一直积极限制平台上的有害内容，包括销售违禁品和公共色情内容。
他披露，该平台管理员已主动监控应用程式的公共内容，并通过应用程序和电子邮件 [email protected] 接受用户的举报，以删除违反服务条款的内容。
“然而，Telegram不会参与任何形式的政治审查。”
昨日，通讯及数码部长法米指出，该部自1月起就向电报发出邀请，以讨论数宗投诉和寻求解决方案，但直到今天，对方仍是拒绝配合。
Telegram refuses Malaysian government's content censorship request
Telegram has refused to cooperate with Malaysia's Communications and Multimedia Department due to its reluctance to be involved in "any form of political censorship". Remi Vaughn, a Telegram spokesperson, said in a statement to the New Straits Times that the messaging app has been actively limiting harmful content on the platform since its launch, including the distribution of prohibited goods and public pornographic content. Telegram administrators manually monitor the app's public content, and users can report violating content through the app and by email to [email protected], citing violations of the service terms. However, "Telegram will not participate in any form of political censorship."
