That’s correct. If you trust the client, it’s fine. Such as if your messages leave the device encrypted already. If the encryption is handled by the server tho, its license does not matter in any way, they can do whatever they want with it. I know telegram has two communication modes, and if you trust the E2E one then all should be well. (I don’t know how great Telegram’s client-side encryption is)
I’m not defending Telegram here, I don’t really trust it, but all that matters in encrypted communication in general is whether the client app is secure and no sensitive data leave it unencrypted.
