John,

Investigators have uncovered a sadistic monkey torture ring on messaging app Telegram – hundreds of people thinking up extreme torture methods and then paying people to inflict them on defenceless baby macaques.

This kind of abuse is rife on Telegram. We can make it stop.

Telegram’s CEO is now talking about listing on the US stock exchange, according to insiders. But they’ll need a squeaky clean bill of health to get permission to go ahead.

If enough of us chip in the cost of a coffee, we can mount a fierce campaign to derail Telegram’s chances until it cleans up its act – hiring top-notch investigators to compile and submit an ironclad complaint to the government agency the SEC, writing a briefing to warn off investors, and launching a publicity push to show we won’t stop trashing them until it ends the abuse.

Telegram really wants this – if it sees its chances crumbling, it could act to clean up the company. But we need to move fast. Can you chip in now to stop the animal torture rings?

It’s unimaginable cruelty. Tiny, baby macaques – remarkably similar to humans emotionally – kept in cages to be abused, mutilated and sometimes killed to order. One man, who called himself the “Torture King”, allegedly collected over 2,200 videos to sell online.

It’s not just animal torture. Telegram is where organised criminals go to sell everything from illegal guns to fentanyl – an easy-to-access dark web fuelling real-world violence and suffering on a mass scale.

John, letting Telegram list on the stock exchange would give it access to vast new funding streams – and send an awful message to corporations everywhere that even the most basic ethics don’t matter. We can’t let that happen.

If we move fast enough, we can put their plans in big enough jeopardy to force a radical overhaul at the company. They know they’ve got a lot to lose – this is the best chance yet to clean up this toxic platform. Can you chip in now?
