What self-aggrandizing? Where is this about me?

Going public makes companies beholden to stock valuations, not what the users want. Which means Telegram will be even less useful for privacy and security minded folks.

Just like other public systems, you become the product.

Also, don't put words in my mouth, and take your condescending attitude and stuff it where the sun don't shine.

Show some integrity.

Well telegram is already profitable with showing minimal ad, and no user data selling. You just can't make up points that going for IPO will make them less secure, why so much rush? Just wait and watch what happens.
