I read that Telegram used a custom crypto protocol instead of standard ones, which was a cause for concern [1]. Open-sourcing their server code would certainly make it easier for researchers to fully analyze what's happening, as well as enabling others to replace the custom ones with standard protocols.
Is this the only source for Telegram open sourcing their servers? Seems like this tweet could just as easily be saying that they are removing the 200 person limit in August, not open sourcing.
