Warrant Canary

Last updated: March 20, 2026

What is a Warrant Canary?

A warrant canary is a method by which a service provider informs users that it has not been served with a secret government subpoena or national security letter. If this page is removed or stops being updated, it may indicate that OxidVPN has received such a request. The name derives from the practice of using canaries in coal mines to detect dangerous gases.
