Pavel Durov, founder and CEO of Telegram, was denied permission to travel to Oslo for the Oslo Freedom Forum, where he was to speak on freedom of expression and digital rights. The French judiciary refused his request due to an ongoing investigation into his alleged involvement in criminal activities. Thor Halvorssen, head of the Human Rights Foundation, criticized this decision as a setback for freedom, emphasizing the importance of Durov’s voice. While unable to attend in person, Durov will speak via video. Earlier, he faced similar travel restrictions and has publicly accused French intelligence of pressuring him to censor conservative voices.
