I'd like to know if a bot can subscribe to a channel, I don't seem to be able to do it.
Thanks
Actually a bot can can receive all the messages from a channel — it should be just a member of the channel. See What messages will my bot get? in the FAQ. But only a channel admin can "subscribe" a bot to the channel in such a way.
Another way is to use some programmable Telegram client application or library (thanks to the open MTProto protocol). For example, see Telethon library (Python3).

The Twilio Console is confusing me. I can't seem to find a location where I can set the URL that my webhook is at for managing Opt Outs to my SMS campaigns.
I'm using a Messaging Service, and I'm on the Integration page settings of that service. Here's the screenshot:
I want to set it to “Drop the Message” (so I won’t be billed for incoming messages) – but now I want to understand how I can manage my opt-out requests. How/Where can I set which URL webhook they should go to?
Thanks for any help! :)
For Long Codes and Toll Free Numbers, the Opt-in/Opt-out is handled by Twilio.
Twilio support for opt-out keywords (SMS STOP filtering)
Or if you enabled Advanced Opt-out

I'm using Telegram Bot class library authored by RoundRobin, because of censorship and internet filtering it is a little bit hard to write and work with Telegram Bots. is it any direct way to use this API using SOCKS5? either for sending or listening to messages.
Is it possible to implement a bot or program to take over a communication on my behalf is such way that my friend not notice it's not me who is responding?
Can I do this with Hangouts Bot or I need to implement an application with Hangouts API?
Neither is possible. The Hangouts Chat API/Bots can only respond to messages addressed directly to the bot service account. It is not possible to intercept messages sent to other users.
Potentially, you could instead write a browser plugin to act on your behalf in a open chat windows.
Is there a way to "communicate" with Telegram BotFather via API to create and configure new bots without actually "chat" with it?
It could be useful to create a bot programmatically.
I am using Firebase, but I don't know what is different between notifications in Firebase and FCM.
I think notifications of Firebase can only send messages, whereas FCM can send and get messages.
Is it right?
Firebase Notifications is built on Firebase Cloud Messaging and shares the same FCM SDK for client development. For testing or for sending marketing or engagement messages with powerful built-in targeting and analytics, you can use Notifications. For deployments with more complex messaging requirements, FCM is the right choice.
https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/#how_does_it_work
Use the Notifications console GUI to compose and send notifications to all supported message targets. Firebase Cloud Messaging handles the routing and delivery to targeted devices.
Firebase Notifications offer a console which users can use to send a notification without writing a single line of code. So, it is used to create and send the notification
Firebase Cloud Messaging is a cross-platform messaging solution that lets you reliably deliver messages at no cost. So, it is used to route and deliver the message/notification
