When it comes to privacy telegram is not great. The privacy is handled by splitting the cryptographic key in to multiple segments and storing it in servers located at different countries making it harder for any single government to force to provide without involving legal process that has to go-through multiple countries. This sounds not that bad in theory but in practice any developer knows you need the entire key on a single machine to process the data which means every server that processes the data has the entire key and any government can intervene and spy on the message.
