How Warrant Canaries Work

A warrant canary is a regularly published statement affirming that the site operator has not been served with certain types of secret government orders.

Under U.S. law, recipients of National Security Letters (NSLs) and certain FISA court orders are prohibited from disclosing that they have received such orders. However, the absence of a previously published denial — the removal or non-renewal of a canary — can serve as an indirect signal.

The concept relies on the legal principle that while the government can compel silence, it generally cannot compel false speech. A site operator can be ordered not to disclose an order, but they cannot be forced to affirmatively state that no order has been received if one has.

This canary is updated regularly. If it is not updated, or if it disappears, draw your own conclusions.
