Rumble founder Chris Pavlovski left Europe due to threats following Telegram CEO's arrest. Pavlovski expressed concerns over France's actions against Telegram and Rumble. Rumble, known as a YouTube alternative for conservatives, blocked access to French users after being asked to remove certain Russian news sources. The arrest of Telegram's CEO Pavel Durov highlights concerns over platform moderation and legal challenges with governments. French authorities have not issued a public statement on Durov's arrest.
