SYDNEY: Australia's online watchdog said on Feb 24 it has fined Telegram more than US$600,000 (RM2.65mil) for missing a deadline to reveal how it tackles "terrorist" and child sexual abuse content.
The encrypted messaging firm replied more than five months after the May 6, 2024 limit for disclosing its online safety compliance, eSafety Commissioner Julie Inman Grant said.
