He knows how to be appealing to other idiots.
Actually one can call it genial business sense.
He made a social network first, then evaluated which parts of it were most efficient in attracting people, and made a social network masqueraded as an instant messenger.
A deliberately insecure one, but pretending to be secure in a tone appealing to idiots, again.
This may mean he’s not an idiot himself, just an asshole.

I’ve never heard anything about ignoring French warrants…?

According to TF1 he was arrested due to lack of cooperation with law enforcement regarding suspected complicity in drug trafficking, CSAM, and fraud. So my interpretation is that they repeatedly ignored french law enforcement asking Telegram to take down certain channels. Maybe warrant was the wrong word I am not a native speaker.

There were warrants issued on March 25 to him and his brother, which were ignored.
