Telegram founder: Huang Renxun made a beginner's mistake by establishing a board of directors

Odaily Planet Daily News: Telegram founder Pavel Durov posted a comment on the Huang Renxun-related incident, stating that Huang Renxun made a rookie mistake—establishing a board of directors. Durov said that in 2014, he was ousted by the board for refusing to compromise with intelligence agencies; in 2026, Huang Renxun will be kicked out by the board for compromising with intelligence agencies. He joked that regardless, the board will eventually remove the founder and advised entrepreneurs not to establish a board but to personally control it.
