Telegram founder Pavel Durov announced he would begin sharing some users' identifying information with law enforcement.
With over 900 million users around the globe, Telegram has been both revered and reviled for its hands-off approach to moderating posted content.
The first flurry of panic followed indictments by the Justice Department of two alleged leaders of the Terrorgram Collective , a group of white supremacists.
Terrorgram Collective had already been badly weakened by a string of arrests in the U.S. , Europe and Canada over the past two years .
Federal agents have arrested at least two individuals who were allegedly inspired by the group.
In extremist circles, there was more discussion about fleeing Telegram after Durov ’s announcement this week .
