Apple makes us declare that we are using standard encryption techniques before we push to the app store in france.

Kind of sus that they only have issues with non-standard encryption. It’s not clear if nip04 or nip44 quality for the exception.

The French government's press release on Telegram CEO Pavel Durov is completely unhinged. It not only references complicity in CSAM, money laundering, organized crime and drug trafficking, but also seems to state that Telegram did not acquire a license to provide "cryptology services".

This is interesting because France apparently *does* have regulations which require licenses for the distribution of cryptology unless used for authentication purposes, as governed by the Code de la Defense.

[Not a lawyer, just researching my way through this hot mess.]
