Rumble founder: is fighting French court, wants Telegram CEO released immediately

Chris Pavlovski, founder of online video platform Rumble, posted on X platform, “I'm a little late to the party, and here's why - I just got out of Europe safely. France has already threatened Rumble, and now they've crossed the red line by arresting Telegram CEO Pavel Durov, reportedly for failing to censor speech. Rumble will not tolerate this behavior and will use all legal means to fight for the universal human right to free speech. We are currently fighting the French courts and hope that Pavel Durov will be released immediately.”
Rumble is an online video platform, web hosting and cloud services business headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and its U.S. headquarters in Longboat Key, Florida, according to reports.
