MTProto 2 has not been cracked.

What's important is that it hasn't been confirmed good by actual normal cryptographers. It's science, not school debates.

Telegram’s unwillingness to cooperate with governments is an additional security layer.

No person ever instructed in security would say something this childishly asinine!

I dunno. It's just not.

Shows like "we have a reward to crack it, nobody's done this, so we're very cool" are not sufficient.
