The word is stolen from Italian, "Telegramma" (means letter in English), Durov's curators clearly had a very poor imagination and far below average marketing skills. It's frequently the case when one is on state service. Right, why bother? The funding will come anyways. Only for the record, it wasn't stolen, and it doesn't mean letter. Telegramma means telegramma, NOT lettera. Telegram is an English word alright, and means, like in Italian, a message (a letter if you like, but usually telegrams were way shorter than a letter or would have costed an arm and a leg) sent through the telegraph: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/telegram#English https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telegraphy#Telegram_services of course the root is the same of telegraph, from Greek tele (distant) and graph-ma (letter/written message from graphein to write). Telegraph is the method technology, telegram is the message delivered through that technology. Of course the English don't use it, replacing it with wire or cable. Curiously enough, the Russian word for it - besides cyrillic transliteration - is телеграмма more similar to the Italian, or to the French télégramme.

It stands behind 90% percent of organized world terrorism, from ISIS, to Al-Quaida, Irish National Liberation Army, Taliban, HAMAS. All of this is made possible just cause KGB\FSB.

I doubt they was unwitting. I think they knew who pay theme and understand the task very clearly. P.S. Аbout year ago i watched interview with former worker of ruZZia's (government own) TV channel to SotnikTV. He said that they internal chats with instructions and "talking points" was in Telegram. When he asked his superiors why Telegram (he naively thought that Telegram was fighting FSB) he was answered - that was show for the fools and Telegram is under tight control of FSB.
