Pavel Durov. Owner of Telegram.
For a decade I'm waiting for him to slip on his lies and spill out the billionaire evil. But there's still no drama, no posing, no yacht, no island, no employee-torturing, no supercars, no castles... Just a guy who happened to get a ton of moneyz and trying to fulfil his vision of a free messenger that won't cooperate with governments like the others do. There's a reason it's banned in many countries and he's even been deported from his motherland.
Not saying he's an angel, and billionaires really shouldn't exist at all. But if i had to choose one of them to get a fair trial instead of the ad-hoc-guillotine, it'd be him.
