Functionally it is not a BBS, but a way to read messages. It just uses a smartphone or tablet type device for it. As to the 'privacy policy' that is on the users to keep the data internal to the TELEGRAM delivery only. IE: no porting to others or news-servers etc allowed. No public facing web page portals allowed.
It becomes in essense an 'APP' on a smartphone and has good potential to reach a wider audience.
Why do you fear it? Or do I misunderstand you?
To me, it's just a modern tech of the 2020's that operates in a point-to-point delivery mode that functionall is a way to 'Offline Read' BBS messages in those echos available and respond to what is essentially a 'Boss Node' on Fidonet who then promulgates it to the rest of us. Harmless.
