چرا این را منتشر می‌کنیم

A warrant canary is not a cryptographic proof of anything positive — it is a ritual of negative disclosure. In jurisdictions where a legal order can compel a provider not to speak about the order itself, the order cannot compel the provider to continue to publish a signed statement that the order has not occurred. The absence of the expected signature therefore communicates information that the issuing authority cannot lawfully block.

Our canary is renewed every Monday. If the W22-2026 signing is not followed by a 2026-06-01 signing (or a same-week infrastructure-incident post-mortem on /status that explains the delay), the reasonable inference after 2026-06-08 is that BitVPS Ltd has received a category of order described above and has been compelled to remain silent about it. You should then migrate away, rotate credentials, and treat our infrastructure as hostile until the canary returns with a fresh post-mortem.

This document is governed by the Terms of Service and the operational policies at /privacy, /abuse, and /dmca. It is not legal advice; it is an operational signal.

Warrant canary سؤالات متداول

How the canary works, how to verify it, what a missing signature means and which jurisdictions it covers.

warrant canary چیست؟
A warrant canary is a routinely published statement asserting that the publisher has not received certain classes of secret legal process — typically a National Security Letter, a gag-bound subpoena, or a bulk-surveillance order. If the statement disappears or fails to renew, the inference is that such an order has been received and the publisher has been compelled to remain silent about it.
What does a missing canary mean?
If the canary is more than seven days late and there is no infrastructure post-mortem on /status explaining the delay, treat BitVPS as compromised: migrate workloads, rotate credentials and assume any data on our infrastructure is at risk. Latency alone is not proof of compulsion, but it is the only signal we are legally able to give.
How do I verify the PGP signature?
Fetch our master public key from /pgp/, import it with gpg --import, confirm the fingerprint matches the one published on this page, then run gpg --verify canary.asc against the clearsigned text above. The output must contain “Good signature” and the matching fingerprint — anything else means the canary is invalid.
Why weekly and not daily?
Weekly cadence balances signal freshness against operational risk: signing requires a human operator to physically reach an offline keystore. Daily signing increases the chance of a benign miss (travel, illness, hardware failure) being misread as compulsion. Seven days gives readers a clear staleness threshold while keeping the signing ritual sustainable.
Has the canary ever been late?
No. Every weekly signing since the canary was established has been published on schedule with a valid PGP signature. The full archive is available below — each entry is independently verifiable against the public key, and historical signings remain on the site permanently so the chain cannot be silently rewritten.
What jurisdictions does this canary cover?
The canary covers BitVPS Ltd. and its operating subsidiaries in every jurisdiction where we hold infrastructure: Iceland, the Netherlands, Romania and Switzerland. It explicitly disclaims receipt of any National Security Letter, gag order, bulk-surveillance order or equivalent compelled-silence instrument from any government in those jurisdictions or their mutual legal assistance partners.
