But why! 
It's a perfect opportunity to show you fanbois just how much Apple cares about to your security settings ...

It's not like Android security is such a brightly shining star either.

I would say it has nothing to do wit security, but more privacy... and privacy is what they carve their living from...

At least they don't charge you a premium price for android - comes on a $50 flip phone. Moreover, they don't threaten your warranty unless you only do business with them.

Maybe it's your friends that allow the app to snatch the contact list and when they do that it kind'ok make your contact "visible" ?
I'd rather be phishing!

No. As explained in my OP. How would their app know what nicknames I have given them?

Just a coincidence. Before he changed it, your boss' name was actually f*** Face.

|
Because that app accessed your contact despite of your refusal ?

How are you verifying this? Are your contacts saved to some other location that the app may have access to?

PRIVACY ISSUE DISCOVERED IN TELEGRAM MESSAGING APP
xxxxx://blackmereconsulting.com/privacy-issue-discovered-in-telegram-messaging-app/
could be it sucked your contacts before you disabled its access... and then uploaded it to the cloud.. best thing is to try see if they have any data of your you can take and check and then delete your account and switch to some other app

This link, below, gave me an idea you can try: The Lounge[^]
Create some new nickname contacts - see if they propagate. Even just slightly change the spelling of a few (they could check/cull for valid contact list entries). If the updates show them perhaps you may wish to write apple a stern letter.

They probably only allow fan mail (at a premium). There is no stern letter option.

Well they have obviously (or maybe you just let them) breached the GDPR so you can sue them.

Did you check under Settings | Privacy | Contacts whether Telegram is on the list?
I see Telegram does have access to my Contacts, even though I can't recall expressly giving it. I've turned off Contacts access now, I'd like to see what happens.
Only way to really know would be to uninstall the app, reinstall, expressly forbid Contacts access, and then check in the Settings whether it's got access anyway.
