Preventing invitations to sponsored channels

Since the Telegram messenger, like many other foreign social networks, is restricted for Iranians, users must use a VPN or proxy to connect to it. Public proxies are free, but users are added to "sponsored channels" without their knowledge. If you do not want to join sponsored channels, you can delete the proxy you are using and use a VPN or private proxy to connect to this social network.
