Pavel Durov's arrest could impact free speech, and the war between Russia and Ukraine.Over the last few years the social media and messaging app Telegram has become increasingly popular. It's different from other apps, like WhatsApp and Facebook, partly because it allows you to create massive groups, of up to 200,000 people. But the app has also faced criticism relating to disinformation, and the sharing of conspiracist, neo-Nazi, paedophilic, or terror-related content.On Wednesday Pavel Durov, the founder and CEO of Telegram, was placed under formal investigation in France as part of a probe into organised crime on the app. BBC tech reporter Graham Fraser tells us what we need to know about Telegram, and this investigation. Telegram has often been used by pro-democracy protesters, including in Hong Kong. The BBC's Fan Wang explains. And there has been a massive reaction to Durov's arrest in Russia. The BBC's Karine Mirumyan tells us why the Russian military, and government, use the app - and whether this arrest could impact the war in Ukraine.

A legal battle has been raging after a woman suffered a severe allergic reaction and died at Disney World Orlando in Florida. The restaurant she ate at isn't owned by Disney itself but her husband believes the entertainment giant does have some liability as well and tried to sue the company. But here's the catch - Disney's lawyers said he couldn't take the company to court because of terms in a Disney+ free trial contract he signed up to years before. Disney has since backtracked on this argument after the case blew up on social media. But what are we really agreeing to when we tick the box on a terms and conditions document? Graham Fraser from the BBC's tech team takes us through the story at Disney World. Plus Alex from the What in the World team goes into other weird clauses in contracts you might have signed.

Graham Fraser has been an outdoor preschool leader for over 10 years in scotland and canada and currently runs Woods and Waves, a popular outdoor preschool program in Vancouver. When Graham had to close the doors of his preschool during the Covid-19 pandemic, he found creative ways to continue engaging with his families remotely, and provide them with tools to have meaningful play outside. This led he and three of his friends to start brainstorming ways to reach even more families. This is how the Twigs app was born. Twigs is an app for parents and caregivers to use as their go-to resource for activities, ideas and guidance to support outdoor, imaginative play. I am excited to have Graham here with us today to share some of his experience with outdoor play, and more about this wonderful resource that he has helped create.
