The dissemination of pedophilic content is one of the gravest online crimes that severely infringes on children’s rights. Such content not only promotes and reinforces sexual abuse of children but also leaves profound psychological and social scars on the victims and society. Children subjected to such abuse often carry the psychological and emotional consequences of these experiences for the rest of their lives.
Many countries and international regulations strictly prohibit the distribution and promotion of pedophilic content. In various countries, producing, distributing, and viewing such content carries heavy penalties, including imprisonment and substantial fines. On the internet, many platforms and social networks have stringent rules to combat this type of content, encouraging users to report such material.
Telegram’s Mechanism for Handling Pedophilia As one of the major messaging platforms, Telegram has implemented mechanisms to handle pedophilic content. One of these mechanisms is the direct reporting feature, which allows users to report inappropriate content to Telegram’s administrators. Additionally, Telegram has established an email address, stopCA@telegram.org, for reporting child abuse content, enabling users to report suspicious content to this email.
Ineffectiveness of Current Methods Despite these mechanisms
Telegram’s current methods for combating pedophilic content are insufficient. Offenders employ sophisticated techniques to circumvent these mechanisms. One such technique is using secure channels to distribute links to the final pedophilic channels. In case a pedophilic channel is blocked, a new link is introduced in the secure channel, which operates normally. This method enables offenders to quickly establish new channels and transfer content to them.
Another technique involves using Telegram bots to disseminate content. These bots allow users to access pedophilic content, which is deleted after a few seconds, making it difficult to report.

Need for More Responsible Actions from Telegram
Telegram, as a popular messaging platform, must take a more responsible stance on this issue. The platform should have the capability to identify and block pedophilic content in its cloud infrastructure before it is published and permanently ban offenders. This is especially crucial in countries where Telegram does not cooperate with the governments, such as Iran, where the spread of such content can cause even more harm to the population.
These channels are not limited to disseminating child abuse content but also publish the personal information and identities of minors to exert pressure on them. This is particularly dangerous for victims living in countries with weaker laws and limited access to legal support. Telegram must adopt more proactive and decisive measures to protect its users, especially children and adolescents, making the platform a safer environment for everyone.
suggest banning all the users joined pedophile channels and groups beside the administrators so that they cannot just create new channel and gather all this sick people again.

Hi Telegram. Please do serious and strict efforts based on "full Telegram Access Removal of the Pedophilic Channel "Admins" or Hash Content Removal" (not just "closing" the Specific Pedophilic Channels) to stop Pedophilic and Child Abuse contents. "The dissemination of pedophilic content is one of the gravest online crimes that severely infringes on children's rights. Such content not only promotes and reinforces sexual abuse of children but also leaves profound psychological and social scars on the victims and society."
You write as if you are actively looking for such content yourself: in all the years of using the platform, I have never seen anything like this. Maybe because I was not looking?
