With support for massive chatrooms, Telegram is almost more akin to social media than to a traditional messaging app. Many companies offer news, updates, and support through their official Telegram channels making it a very convenient place for users to stay up to date with various interests. Due to its strong stance on free speech, Telegram built a reputation for not cooperating with law enforcement investigations. However, after the arrest of CEO Pavel Durov in part relating to Telegram's refusal hand over user data in lawful orders, Telegram changed their [privacy policy](https://files.catbox.moe/988lhl.png) to say they may share user phone numbers and IP addresses and indeed have [done so](https://www.404media.co/telegram-confirms-it-gave-u-s-user-data-to-the-cops/).

SimpleX is a relative newcomer on the scene and has a unique angle in that there are no user identifies of any kind. As such, users can create unlimited profiles (and even hidden profiles to improve plausible deniability) and connect with others anonymously. Unlike Signal, SimpleX supports native onion routing as well as the ability to self-host servers. Because of its default E2EE, servers are not able to see message contents and self-hosted servers can be shared with others, contributing to decentralization and thus making SimpleX more resilient. SimpleX's founder, in an [interview](https://www.wired.com/story/neo-nazis-flee-telegram-encrypted-app-simplex/), implied that SimpleX sees no information about its users but since it is new, it remains to be seen how they would respond to actual court orders.
