Ng had the power to remove or amend the messages in the channel, but he “allowed them to exist.” Over 33,000 people sent out over 1,000 doxxing messages in the group.

Joined by Telegram's representative in Brazil, Alan Campos, Perekopsky noted the platform was unable to cater to some of the TSE requests due to the company's operational setup. But Perekopsky added that these requests could be studied for future implementation.
