Telegram founder Pavel Durov had his iPhone hacked in 2017 in a joint operation by France and the United Arab Emirates, according to a Wall Street Journal report.
Billionaire Telegram CEO Pavel Durov was released from police custody Wednesday and transferred to an investigative judge, according to reports. The news follows a new report that his iPhone was hacked in 2017 in a joint operation by France and the United Arab Emirates , according to a Wall Street Journal report.
Earlier Wednesday, a Wall Street Journal report citing people familiar with the matter claimed Durov had his phone hacked in a spy operation in 2017 that was code-named "Purple Music" and took place about a year before Durov met with French President Emmanuel Macron for lunch, where they discussed the Russian-born tech guru becoming a French citizen. The lunch was part of a series of meetings the French leader had with tech entrepreneurs, a source close to Macron tells Reuters.
