The crimes cited by Inman Grant were ideologically-driven massacres performed for online audiences.
Inman Grant said eSafety began urging Telegram to comply with its own policies in March 2024, but the platform had been “non-responsive” for months.

The Australian court case also related to IS beheadings and other “horrific material used for propaganda and for radicalization,” she said.
“When platforms are alerted to terrorist content, they must act,” Inman Grant said.
