Moscou a annoncé émettre un mandat d'arrêt international visant Pavel Durov, fondateur de la messagerie Telegram, accusé par les services de sécurité russes de « complicité de terrorisme ». Le FSB affirme que la plateforme aurait servi à recruter de jeunes Russes pour des activités de sabotage au profit des services spéciaux ukrainiens, via un robot de rencontres qui n'aurait pas été supprimé. Très utilisée en Russie, y compris par les autorités, Telegram pourrait être requalifiée en plateforme « extrémiste », selon des avocats locaux. Comment expliquer ces accusations ? Pavel Durov est actuellement mis en examen en France. Pourrait-il être extradé en Russie ? Avec Ulrich Bounat, analyste géopolitique, chercheur-associé à Euro Créative.

La lluvia remite en Andalucía pero los acumulados dejan en riesgo de desbordamiento ríos y embalses. En toda la comunidad hay más de 3.500 desalojados, los últimos, los vecinos de Dúdar (Granada), después de desaguar de urgencia el pantano cercano; y en la ciudad de Córdoba, donde preocupa el desbordamiento del río Guadalquivir. Además, en Málaga, buscan a una mujer que fue arrastrada por el río en Sayalonga cuando intentaba rescatar a su perro, que cayó al cauce en mitad del temporal. De la política, los dueños de la redes sociales se movilizan contra el Gobierno por su anuncio de prohibición de acceso a estas plataformas a menores de 16 años. Tras los insultos de Elon Musk (dueño de Twitter), ahora Pavel Durov ha enviado un mensaje en contra de Sánchez a todos los españoles usuarios de su red social Telegram.

Ce n'est pas un simple fait divers, c'est un tournant historique. Pourquoi l'arrestation de Pavel Durov, PDG de Telegram, peut être lue comme un aveu de faiblesse de l'État. Ressources :
Dans cet épisode de L'atelier des médias, Steven Jambot reçoit Guillaume Grallet, rédacteur en chef sciences et tech au magazine Le Point, pour discuter du livre qu'il vient de publier, Pionniers, dans lequel il fait le récit de ses rencontres avec plusieurs figures de la tech mondiale. L'intelligence artificielle bouleverse nos sociétés et ouvre des perspectives vertigineuses, entre progrès scientifique et risques existentiels. Fruit de quinze ans de terrain, Pionniers : Voyage aux frontières de l'intelligence artificielle nous emmène à la rencontre de personnalités du monde de la tech et notamment de l'IA. Le journaliste français Guillaume Grallet n'y cache pas sa curiosité pour ces créateurs, rappelant qu'il leur pose quasi systématiquement trois questions : leur vision du monde dans dix ans, la personnalité qu'ils aimeraient rencontrer, et ce qu'il faut apprendre aux enfants à l'ère de l'accélération technologique. Guillaume Grallet explique sa démarche : « C'est une véritable curiosité de savoir quel monde toutes ces personnes inventent ». Ce voyage journalistique révèle que la Silicon Valley n'est pas un bloc monolithique. Par exemple, si Jensen Huang (Nvidia) estime qu'il ne sert plus à rien d'apprendre à coder, Dario Amodei (Anthropic) soutient au contraire l'importance de comprendre le fonctionnement des machines. À écouter aussi :Plongée sociologique au cœur de la Silicon Valley Entre transhumanisme et repli protecteur Dans son livre, Guillaume Grallet raconte ses rencontre avec des figures emblématiques de la tech, à commencer par Mark Zuckerberg – patron de Meta – dont les convictions transhumanistes l'amènent à imaginer une communication par la pensée d'ici 30 à 50 ans. Pourtant, parallèlement à ces ambitions globales, le patron de Meta semble se préparer à un avenir sombre en construisant un complexe autosuffisant à Hawaii. Face à ces projets parfois opaques, Guillaume Grallet plaide pour une transparence accrue : « Il faut que tous les artisans de ces technologies nous expliquent où ils veulent nous emmener et surtout incluent tout le monde et ne pas nous emmener vers une dystopie ». L'émergence d'une IA souveraine et diverse Cet entretien s'intéresse aussi à la place de l'Afrique dans cette révolution. À travers des figures comme Pelonomi Moiloa et les conférences Indaba, une résistance s'organise contre le « néocolonialisme numérique ». L'objectif est de valoriser la richesse des quelques 2 000 langues africaines pour créer des outils adaptés aux réalités locales, notamment pour l'agriculture ou le climat. Guillaume Grallet souligne l'importance de cette diversité : « On voit des personnalités [...] qui veulent s'appuyer peut-être sur la diversité des langues africaines pour changer le monde ». De la même manière, il salue les efforts européens, comme ceux d'Arthur Mensch avec Mistral AI, qui refusent la fatalité de dépendre uniquement des géants américains. Rester humain : le défi des « neurodroits » Ayant lui-même expérimenté l'implantation d'une puce NFC en 2015 avant de la faire retirer, Guillaume Grallet alerte sur les dérives de l'augmentation humaine. Il rappelle que l'innovation technologique doit rester un outil de progrès et non un moyen d'hybridation forcée. Face à des projets comme Neuralink, il devient essentiel de défendre nos neurodroits, explique Guillaume Grallet : « Si c'est 'nous augmenter, pour nous augmenter', là je dis non. Et je dis qu'il faudra dire non de plus en plus fermement ». Pour lui, l'intégrité de notre cerveau et le droit d'apprendre par soi-même sont des piliers de notre liberté future.

Earlier this year, Telegram raised $1.7 billion from convertible bonds — funds earmarked to pay off debt due next year, leaving about $745 million in surplus. In December 2024, in its first profitable year, the company reportedly earned a profit of $540 million on revenue of $1.4 billion. This year, Telegram's profits are expected to top $700 million on $2 billion in revenue. The social network reportedly has more than 1 billion monthly active users, including 15 million paid subscribers — a figure that has doubled over the past year. In November 2025, the French authorities fully lifted their travel ban on billionaire Pavel Durov, Telegram's founder and CEO, who was arrested in Paris in August 2024 on charges alleging complicity in crimes facilitated through the platform. In the past two years, Durov has granted hours-long interviews to podcaster and YouTuber Lex Fridman and American journalist Tucker Carlson. Durov also spent two days talking to Russian journalist Nikolay Kononov, who recently published a new book that updates his “14-year investigation into Pavel Durov's strategy and mindset, and the epic of Telegram.” The book, The Populist: The Untold Story of Pavel Durov and Telegram, is now available in English. Kononov spoke with The Naked Pravda about Durov's conservative political views, his uncompromising managerial style, and Telegram's efforts to navigate regulatory risks while expanding its global user base.

Jameela Jamil is breaking up with women journalists via Substack. After too many burnouts and betrayals, the actress and activist is done. But is this really the group chat exit we think it is? Mia, Jessie and Holly have thoughts. Plus, there's a mahoosive marriage taking place in Venice this week and friends, people are protesting. It's Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez whose nuptials are getting flack and their wedding extravaganza is everything you’d expect: 27 dresses, three days of events, multiple protests, and a juicy affair that started it all. We've got the full rundown — from the super yacht to the guest list. Also on today’s show: you've heard of 'Let Them' and if you came to our live show, you might have heard our blunt alternative. But what about... 'Who says?' Who says you can’t wear that crop top? Who says those pants aren’t it? (Well, Mia... apparently. But ignore that.) This latest life theory might just be the one that changes everything — for the better.
