Telegram Bot API doesn't support secret chats! #5

Open tctfsl opened 3 years ago

tctfsl commented 3 years ago

Just found out that the API doesn't support end-to-end encryption which I consider it as a showstopper if it were to be used in production. Unless there's support for secret chat in the future, this bot is unlikely to go live.

Revisiting this, let me rephrase: it will be difficult to implement this bot in an environment where there's a strict IT security policy. Since there's no end-to-end encryption, there will be concern that the bot or the user might transmit sensitive data.
