TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Telegram is facing a possible AU$54.6 million ($38 million) fine in Australia as a regulator said on Thursday the messaging platform failed to remove terrorist content despite warnings, DW reported. "We allege that this content remained accessible on the service long after Telegram had been put on notice," eSafety Commissioner Julie Inman Grant said in a statement. The regulator said Telegram failed to remove pro-terror content between July and October 2025 or suspend the accounts responsible, despite users reporting the content and its disseminators.
