Does your company have a warrant canary or a similar solution to alert customers to gag orders?
"Since we are not operating under US law, in Malaysia there is no such thing as the Patriot Act. So far we haven’t been served with a court order or any governmental request and if it was the case we would be transparent with our customers that might have been affected by such court order." hide.me, Malaysia
"We do not have a warrant canary in place at this time as the concept of a warrant canary is, in fact, flawed at this time, or in other words, is "security theater." Private Internet Access, USA
"No, at this time we do not have a warrant canary." TorGuard, USA
"No. IPVanish, like every other company, follows the law in order to remain in business. Only US law applies." IPVanish, USA

"No" BTGuard, USA
"Yes. We maintain a passive warrant canary, updated weekly, and are investigating a way to legally provide a passive warrant canary which will be customized on a “per user” basis, allowing each user to check their account status individually. It is important to note that the person(s) responsible for updating our warrant canary are located outside of any of the countries where our servers are located." SlickVPN, Offshore Holdings / USA Marketing Office (Mix)

"Yes, we do." LiquidVPN, USA
"Yes" VPN.S, Australia
"Since we are not bound by U.S. law, gag orders like National Security Letters do not apply to us. We would outright disclose any information of a possible problem to our users. As a last resort we would shut down our service before allowing our users to be compromised (e.g. like LavaBit)." Perfect Privacy, New Zealand
"Warrant canaries are new to us. We have not used one before since we are sure that all our users are safe. But we can start using it as an additional option to make our users sure that they are totally secure while using our service.", ShadeYou VPN, Netherlands
