Hi guys, VikingVPN admin here.
Our warrant canary is a “dead man’s switch” style canary that activates if we do not refresh a timer at regular intervals. I am currently in Austria doing unrelated work for OSTIF (negotiating with the Austrian government to establish an EU wing) and did not get to it in time due to an overloaded schedule. The service is fine and we have received no requests for information, clandestine or otherwise.
I will publish a signed statement on the transparency blog shortly.
I’m glad that someone noticed!
Edit: The canary has been updated, and the PGP signed statement is up on our transparency blog.
In all seriousness, is this not the same as announcing that they had a warrant with gag order? I appreciate the honesty of VikingVPN, but realistically I can’t see this hold up in any court.
Dude you had ONE job to do and you failed at it. Whether your explanation is true or false is now moot. If you failed at this, what else are you failing to do?
I wouldn’t risk it, especially since there are hundreds if not thousands of others who are not failing to do their jobs.
Assuming you are on the level, I would advise others not to risk anything when you don’t have to. It’s time to scrape up and reinvent yourself under a totally new company.
