A Russian milblogger is complaining that soldiers have been ordered to ditch Telegram for the FSB-controlled MAX, with military police checking phones. “Anyone caught with Telegram gets sent on a one-way assault mission,” he writes. 15.03.2026

so the Orcs don’t have an ‘you don’t have to follow an unlawful command or order’ clause in their military justice system? ‘world’s second army’
Im behind a little on this telegram stuff. Why did Orcs ban telegram?
Kinda makes you wonder why someone wants to be a milblogger for Russia, in the first place. Best would be to leave the country, and go somewhere that is, you know, not Russia…
They’ve changed the order now and are told to ditch max and reinstall telegram
“We have no freedom of speech”… well, took them long enough to realize that lol.
There go your cannon fodder followers, Ivan. I read and hear that max is having all sorts of problems with their hardware and software implementation.
… unlike the rest who go on a double one way, same direction.
If Moscow once again wants to elevate political subservience above potential military competency; who are we to get in the way of them repeating the same old Russian mistakes.
Make it a crime to have access to superior methods of communication resulting in essentially a death sentence. Because regime paranoia see’s communication they can’t control as a bigger threat than losing on the battlefield.
Submit to the regime or fall victim to the regime, in the end it’s the same self inflicted knee capping by Russians.
russians gave up their rights for stability and in the end they lost both.
LOL
Russian Boobs to the slaughter
“We have no freedom of speech” – Really? When did this weird notion occur to you?
If Max servers are truly in the UK then i support the FSBs choice
It’s cool to be a milblogger for the ruzki mir until you have to actually participate right?
Anyone watching this closer than me have any context as to why this is happening now? They suffered defeats of epic proportions during the invasion, why now?
What kind of moronic losers sign up for this?
Bet Ukraine already has a Zero day hack for Maxx and is just waiting for universal adoption to cause maximum chaosÂ
It’s because they don’t want soldiers using telegram to communicate with relatives and others undetected.
Russia wants to limit all truth.
They’d rather reveal strategy and increase vulnerability than let the truth get out.
