It's not that i don't believe you about apple censoring certain telegram channels but i can't help but wonder how. how is this technically possible. i'm a why and how kind of person and i don't expect you to know but this is extremely alarming. if we assume that telegram uses encryption during transport then apple must have a software layer in between the app (telegram) and the actual displaying of the content. apple would be parsing content after it's been decrypted. we need linux based phones pronto!!!
No. Your sentence is gibberish. It would require a filter to be embedded in the application code to block selected channels. Telegram wrote that code, not Apple. Also, Apple iOS does not have a proxy to filter HTTP requests of random apps using some "magic bullshit logic"... so you are talking out of your ass.
I was thinking the same thing. Doing something like that via apple api is going to cross some privacy boundaries that will get lawsuits. It's very likely telegram is doing the censoring.
When I was programming in windows you could change stuff in textboxes ,labels ,listboxes using a API call that would target said textbox and label.
This is how some earlier yahoo booters where made back in the day to target the correct text box and automatically fill the chat box with the script that would crash yahoo messenger.
Nothing connected via internet in the code was needed, a simple program running in the background, modifying what is being displayed in a certain app instantly via disabling then relabeling a channel name, if it matches keywords, so I'm not talking out of my ass here, not saying they have done it or its possible on iOS Operating System might be a bit different to how Windows functions. Someone who understands how the iOS environment works might corroborate if doing this is plausible from iOS.
Thank you I can see comments from the web site now :).
But I cannot see the original post... lol
Between the app and the web I can the whole thing :)
Good tip. Also get rid of you apple phone

Apple can censor it via API calls user side
