✳️ Our two cents about this:
➡️ Telegram
never stores cloud chats in plaintext on the servers. They are
encrypted.
➡️ Encryption keys are stored in a
different facility in a different jurisdiction for each data center.
➡️ BUT
if some intruder breach the security of all servers/facilities he will be able to access to your messages.

So Snowden is right about this: If you want full privacy, you should always use
end-to-end encryption (keys are only stored on your device and
never on telegram servers).
Fun fact: Long gone are the days when Pavel Durov offered Edward Snowden a job at Vkontakte.http://money.cnn.com/2013/08/05/technology/social/snowden-vkontakte/
