A warrant canary is a strange thing to launch: its whole job is to one day stop appearing.
Ours is signed and renewed monthly. Fingerprint here so you can verify it without trusting our server:

every "free trial" wants a card on file, so it can bill you the second you forget to cancel.
usually right around finals.
pangea's five day trial skips the card. nothing on file, nothing to forget to cancel.
@randomacc8687 Most school filters block by category, not by watching what you actually do.
Discord's flagged as "gaming," Twitter as "social media." Pangea's stealth transports don't register as either, so the filter has nothing to catch.
@CometVPN_ Worth flagging for dorm networks specifically: some don't just watch, they block the VPN handshake outright before you connect.
Pangea tries five different transports (VLESS+Reality, Shadowsocks, Hysteria2 among them) so there's a fallback when the first one gets caught.
@s_jawairiarizvi That's the network catching the VPN handshake mid-connection and cutting it, not bad luck.
Pangea's default transport disguises the handshake as ordinary TLS, so campus wifi doesn't flag it as a VPN in the first place.
Five days free, no card.
Most campus wifi doesn't inspect your traffic. It just blocks by category.
Someone ticked a box on a filter dashboard years ago: streaming, gaming, VPN.
That's why opening one gets flagged instantly. Not because anyone's watching. Because 'VPN' was already on the list.
Move-in week, and halls wifi already flagged Discord as non-educational traffic.
That's the filter doing its job, not your bandwidth.
Pangea's transports don't read as VPN traffic to it, so they don't get flagged either.
@GrapheneOS That SNI allowlist is the layer VLESS+Reality is built for: Pangea's default transport borrows a real site's TLS handshake so the probe sees a genuine domain, not your server's cert. Doesn't touch IP-range blocks like the DataPacket one, that's a separate fight.
@earth2bambino That's ISP-level blocking of specific Google CDN domains (googleapis, googlevideos), not just YouTube, which is also why Gmail and Translate break. Pangea uses transports built to not read as a VPN to that kind of filter, worth trying on cellular.
@keepitcloaked Rogue APs work because the login page loads before anything's encrypted.
A VPN turns that into one encrypted connection before the network sees anything. Pangea uses 256-bit encryption, keys generated on your device.
@keepitcloaked Coffee shop and airport wifi don't just snoop, some actively block VPN handshakes before you connect. Pangea tries five transports (VLESS+Reality, Shadowsocks, Hysteria2, and two more) when one gets fingerprinted, so it keeps connecting.
Some networks don't just watch your traffic, they probe the server you connected to. Answer like a VPN and that IP gets blocked within minutes.
Pangea's Reality transport borrows a real site's TLS handshake, so the probe sees an ordinary site instead.
@IntCyberDigest Worth naming the criterion here, not just the study: can you read the client's code, and does the provider publish anything that would show a government request landed?
Pangea's client is GPLv3, and there's a signed canary updated monthly.
VPN connected. Site still won't load.
Usually not the VPN failing. Either DNS is still pointing at your old resolver, or the site is fingerprinting your new IP and blocking it specifically.
Different fix for each: https://t.co/FPswxBfNQ4
@RonHastings9@SarahLee9595@Olking07 Depends what's blocking you.
If a network is actively blocking VPN traffic, like school or hotel wifi, that's the harder problem.
Pangea tries five different transports so it keeps finding a way through instead of just handing you a blocked port. 5-day trial, no card needed.
@patryusha@earth2bambino DNS/IP blocking like that is the easy version for an ISP.
If Airtel ever moves to inspecting traffic itself, plain VPN protocols get caught too.
Pangea rotates through five transports, one of which mimics ordinary TLS, so a DPI upgrade doesn't kill access again.
