Hello everyone, first of all let’s celebrate that I’ve reached 50 fans! This was a huge achievement for me, and thank you so much for helping me reach this number — it really means a lot. Next time, let’s aim for 100 fans on my Newgrounds channel.
And now, let me explain why you shouldn’t install the national messenger Max "Макс даже ловит на парковке!".
Lately, you can hear more and more advertising about a new so-called “national” messenger called Max. It’s being heavily promoted in the media, promising free communication, safety, and convenience. But behind the polished picture lies a lot of problems you should know about in advance.

A story that could happen to anyone
Imagine this: you download Max. The app immediately asks for access to everything on your phone — camera, microphone, contacts, photos, and even your location. You can’t refuse: if you disable even one permission, the messenger simply won’t launch.
At first, everything seems normal. Chats work, calls go through. But soon, strange things start happening:
Messages sometimes disappear or arrive with delays.
“Recommended contacts” show up, even though you never gave out your number.
Calls get interrupted, and later your friends say they heard strange background noises — as if someone was eavesdropping.
A few weeks later, you notice your conversations are being used against you. For example, a colleague gets fired because his private chat “suddenly” ended up with the boss. Another friend is denied access to education because he wrote something “wrong” in a private conversation.

What makes Max dangerous
1. Total control — the app collects data about every user.
2. No privacy — conversations can be listened to and analyzed.
3. Censorship — any word disliked by the system could result in a ban.
4. Imposed monopoly — Max is promoted as the only option, even though people actually have a choice.

Conclusion
The national messenger Max may look like a convenient service, but in reality, it’s a tool for surveillance and control. By installing it, you’re handing over your private life into someone else’s hands.
Remember: the freedom of communication and confidentiality are worth more than any promises of “safety.” Always think before you hit that “download” button.

Спасибо, полезно, не собиралась это устанавливать и так. Вот только одна проблема, тут мало кто вообще его скачает, так как в основном все не русскоговорящие...

Thanks, useful, I hadn't planned to install it even. But there's the problem, there's not much people who would install it, because almost nobody speaks russian here.
