Sure, but why should I have any reason to believe you?
If you had been served with a national security letter, you would be obligated to lie about it.
Plus, you have a pretty significant financial incentive to lie about how great Cloudflare is, with no downside, since you're not under oath on HN. And even if you were, officials who have lied about the extent of surveillance programs while under oath haven't been prosecuted.
Representatives of Facebook lied. Ditto with Google. Etc, etc, etc.
- true_religion 13y agoNo. National security letters can act as gag orders, obligating you not to talk about their existence but you're never required to lie and say you have never been served a letter. In that case, you can be cagy (as Google has I believe) and say something on the lines of "I can neither confirm nor deny receiving a NS letter" which of course is double speak for "I have one, and I can't talk about it directly".
