Big numbers, small numbers. Mostly small.

If I ever receive a government request, the count above ticks up. I commit to:
— Pushing back, in court if necessary, on any request that appears overbroad or improperly served.
— Notifying the affected user(s), unless I am legally prohibited from doing so by a gag order.
— Publishing the count of any gag-ordered requests in the next quarterly report (I can disclose that I received some even when I can't disclose specifics).
— Refusing to expand the data I collect just to make future requests easier to fulfill.
Warrant canary
Still here. Last verified May 3, 2026.
As of the date above, Vibes has never received a national security letter, a FISA court order, or any classified request for user data. If that statement disappears from this page, draw your own conclusions.
This canary will be re-signed and re-dated on the first business day of every month. The PGP signature is embedded in the page source as an HTML comment so you can verify with my public key.
