Why is the Warrant Canary important?
====================================

Because we're dedicated to protecting everyone's privacy, including
those prosecuted by opressive governments. Without a Warrant Cannary,
there would be no confirmation that a government or other malicious
actor has forced us to recommend software and/or services that might
compromise our readers privacy.

The content is cryptographically signed using the OpenPGP standard
to confirm that it has been written by The Privacy Raccoon maintainers
and not any impostor.

What is the content in the Warrant Canary?
==========================================

We clearly state that our recommendations/guides/articles have not been
compromised by any warrant from governmentes of any corporation interests.

We also include headlines from a popular news source, which verify that
the Warrant Canary could not have been written before the given date.

How frequently do you update the Warrant Canary?
================================================

We'd like to update it at least once every three months. If three months have
passed, don't panic, we may have just forgotten to update it! Send us an email.

The clear signal that the website has been compromised would be the removal 
of the Warrant Canary without previous announcement.
