Matt Hussey, editorial director of NEAR Protocol (and former editor-in-chief of Decrypt) responded to the news of the Telegram group with “#meIRL.” Ng Man-ho, a 27-year-old computer technician, was convicted last month of seven counts of incitement charges after he made use of the 100,000-member Chinese-language channel that he runs and manages to post "seditious messages," which had been shut down since August 2020. Telegram users themselves will be able to flag and report potentially false content. Telegram Android app: Open the chats list, click the menu icon and select “New Channel.” As five out of seven counts were serious, Hui sentenced Ng to six years and six months in jail.
