Telegram has rejected the idea of monitoring every account on its platform to stop the sharing of leaked customer data from Star Health.
Instead, Telegram stated that it will deal with harmful content if reported, in compliance with Indian regulations.
Telegram is willing to work with Star Health to remove data from specific flagged accounts, but it cannot monitor all chats on its own due to Indian privacy laws.
The personal data of millions of Star Health customers was leaked on Telegram in September 2021.
