text is the extracted record we hash and diff; raw is the page's original HTML kept verbatim as evidence — it renders without its styling here, by design.

What we searched for
A status that rests on absence is only as good as the search behind it. Every one of Telegram's 6 archived documents (126,895 characters) was searched for the same published vocabulary used on every company here — in English, German and French. The search is a plain function of the archived text and re-runs whenever that text changes, so it always describes the documents listed above. Re-run it against this archive yourself with tools/scan-terms.mjs.
