You are confusing encryption and end-to-end encryption. By default, all traffic on Telegram is encrypted, but stored on their servers (encryption keys are never stored in the same country to prevent seizing of them by authorities). End-to-end encryption does not store anything on their servers.

Here Pavel Durov (Telegram founder) explains why end-to-end encryption is not enabled by default: http://telegra.ph/Why-Isnt-Telegram-End-to-End-Encrypted-by-Default-08-14

The patent system is not broken, just not perfect. That is the viewpoint of Jon Dudas, the Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Director of the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
Dundas also talks of other improvements planned by the USPTO, including employing more examiners and allowing third-parties to submit information to patent submissions."
