:: Internet Public Policy Issue Region/Country: United States :: Description Nobody currently has any way to know if Mozilla has been served a NSL, because they typically contain gag orders. :: Relevance A browser is a gateway to personal information, and there are some hypothetical situations in which Mozilla could be forced to implement a backdoor of some sort. Goal: Set up a warrant canary for various projects (Fxa, browser, etc.) When: None
Gerv and Sylvestre, This might be up one of your alleys but IPP is probably not the right product.

Benjamin, I am not sure what you are expecting from me here? Tanner, how a warrant canary could work here?

I view this as more of a legal issue than a public policy issue, though certainly government surveillance reform is an issue we work on from a policy perspective. But IPP isn't meant to be used for Mozilla products/internal operations - rather for external public policy contexts, opportunities, and challenges.

¡Hola! Would www.mozilla.org be more appropriate? ¡Gracias! Alex
