That doesn't leave a good impression at all. This basically confirms a gag order and possibly a NSL.

It does make quite a big difference as far as I am aware. 1) The transparency report is not signed by the three parties that used to verify the canary. 2) How are you supposed to report about e.g. NSL, when you can't legally disclose that you have received one?
-
The problem with a canary is how fragile it is. The EFF has recommended against canaries for some time, and other companies (like Signal) don't use them at all. This is a perfect example of the danger of using a warrant canary--we haven't been served but people now think we have.
-
That is true, but that'S also kinda is the whole point of a canary.
-
Unfortunately it's never even been proved if a warrant canary is legal. Transparency reports are the standard way to do this type of reporting now.

Open Source your client. That is the only way we can trust you. You always said you planned to, which was one reason I started using SpiderOak many years ago.

that blog post does not address the open source client issue.
-
We've addressed the open source question pretty clearly here - https://support.spideroak.com/hc/en-us/articles/115002665263-SpiderOak-ONE-Open-Source …. It's not as simple as throwing the source code up on github. That would be irresponsible.
