Telegram began to accept complaints holders on bots

Perhaps, the rights holders complained about Telegram on Google, Apple and Roskomnadzor

The administration of the Telegram messenger has added a paragraph for rightholders in the FAQ of the service 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 chats, but accepts claims in relation to content distributors such as bots, open channels. Claims regarding sticker sets are also accepted.

“All regular and group chat rooms 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 right holder or his authorized representative, ”the FAQ says.
')
Unfortunately, the scheme for the consideration of claims holders is not disclosed.

Now Telegram has a number of bots of services blocked in the Russian Federation. These are the bot of the Rutracker torrent tracker , the bot of the Flibusta electronic library , the bot of the NoName Club torrent tracker, plus the “representative offices” of a number of other sites and services, including quite legal ones, such as Yandex . Shortly after these bots appeared, the copyright holders started complaining about them to Apple and Google.
