 2. Warrant Canary


WARRANT CANARY

by Matthew Russell - Posted 4 years ago









Don’t worry my fellow vigilantes. This is not a new super heroine that we have
attached the “Canary” moniker to. This is a real thing, and something you should
know about.


WHAT ARE THEY?

In the United States certain government agencies such as the NSA can issue
secret request and warrants to websites to request a single persons data, or the
entire database.

Along with this request, the government can issue a “gag order” along with said
request. This means that the website is not allowed to inform the public of this
request.

If you can’t let your customers know, how can you get the word out legally?
Well, in comes from the canary.









WHAT THEY'RE USED FOR

This is a carefully worded document that states that the site has never gotten a
“secret” request from the government. It is usually placed somewhere such as the
footer. A little javascript that updates daily (i.e. “As of July 27 2019, we
have never gotten a secret request”)

As soon as a request comes in, the updates stop. This means that a request has
come in. Some poozers take it down, others stop the date from updating.


WHY THE NAME CANARY?

Back in the day, the canary was used as a warning system to miners. They would
take them down into the mines and any fumes would affect the bird first. If a
canary died, then the miners knew that something was wrong and it was time to
head back to safety.









HOW DOES IT REALLY WORK?

Well, it's a way to “not say” that a secret request has come in. If the date
stops, or the Warrant Canary goes away, then everyone knows what happened.


DOES THIS VIOLATE THE GAG ORDER?

As of today, it has never been contested in court. I’m not positive (without
some legal precedence) but it is something that we are committed to. Privacy
first.


WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT?

We believe in the Constitution of the United States as well as the Bill of
Rights. Freedom of Speech is a cornerstone of what we are trying to do here at
CryptoComics Marketplace.

For the longest time, I have joked that the only group left in America with true
Freedom of Speech is ethnic comedians. Granted, that is a joke but...is it?

We may not agree with every comic book that comes in. There's a few that really
made us shout “[censored]” and we are already looking out our windows for the
next unabomber.

We still allow it on our site. Why? Well, that is a good question. Let me answer
it as plainly as possible...it is their right to do so.

The stance we take is that as long as it is not illegal, let ‘er rip. Now this
isn’t to say the content is strictly legal. If that was the case, Batman
fighting a bank robber would be outlawed due to the fact that robbing banks is
illegal, as well as vigilantism.

If you produce a comic depicting something or advocating like child pornography,
we will pull it faster than you can scream “I’m in trouble!” We will not under
any circumstances, tolerate something like that!


WHAT CAN I DO IF THE WARRANT CANARY IS TAKEN DOWN?

Well, the answer is nothing. There is no legal way to say what was handed over
to such government agencies. Just use the system honestly and responsibly and
everything should be fine.


SOMETHING ELSE TO REMEMBER

Since we will not make it a point to censor ANYONE the views and opinions
expressed in the comic books have nothing to do with us. We don’t speak for the
creators utilizing our system, and they don’t speak for us.

That sounds like a harsh way of stating this, but it is true. I have even
published a comic book on the CryptoComics Marketplace (self promo). If there
was an issue with it, I personally will be responsible for it, not the
marketplace.

My 6 year old son wanted to submit a comic. I wouldn’t allow it due to the fact
that the comic book he created was Hulk V Batman. Keep in mind, he is 6 and has
no concept of comic universes or copyright laws. For this reason, I made him hit
the drawing board again.

As his father, I would be held responsible NOT CryptoComics Marketplace. If he
would have added some hate speech, or anti something and the government steps in
and asks for my info, cryptocomics.com would be forced to hand over that
information.

That, and he would be in a LOT of trouble with me and his mother. Well, we both
would be in trouble with mom. CryptoComics marketplace would also, at this point
take down the Warrant Canary.

This does not apply to corporate copyright laws. That is a different beast all
together.

Let me just end by stating we might not agree with everything on our site, but
we treasure your rights to say it.
