    So much for free markets, democracy and freedom of speech.

    I don’t know whether Spain cares a lot about “free market” at the moment.

    Even if I get your point and would even make a similiar point in a privat conversation, there is still a problem. The problem, if and how the Freedom of Speech implies that you can use a certain service you choice. If this implication were true, would it not mean that the provider of the named service has a duty to provide you a access, too?

    Yes, they blocked it because of copyright infringement but let’s face it, piracy should be viewed as a market option for people to get their content,

    There are messenger out there, which are more privacy as Telegram. Eg. Signal, Threemea, mostly services based on XMPP and Matrix.

      Why would the provider be responsible for the fact that some government is a piece of shits and tries to restrict people’s freedoms? A private messenger company will always be weaker than a government with infinite funding and resources.

      I never said there weren’t, I just said that govts shouldn’t meddle in this things.
