French authorities extend detention of Telegram founder

French judicial authorities have prolonged the detention of Telegram founder Pavel Durov, who was recently arrested at a Paris airport, according to politico.eu. The preliminary interrogation period may last up to 96 hours. Notably, this legal action has triggered an outcry among so-called free speech advocates, including Elon Musk, Matteo Salvini (Italy's right-wing Deputy Prime Minister), Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and more.
