Telegram’s t.me Links Go Offline After Registry Places Domain on serverHold

Telegram’s t.me short-link domain was placed into a registry-level `serverHold`, causing t.me links to stop resolving globally and preventing access to channels, profiles, bots and posts via those short links; Telegram’s messaging service itself was not reported as affected. WHOIS records show the domain remains registered through 2035, and neither Telegram, the .me registry, nor Identity Digital have confirmed a reason; any connection to a recent OFAC listing is unverified.
