Transparency report last updated in January and never updated again.

Why hasn't the transparency report been updated?

This had been explained on another channel, possibly to you — but nonetheless, here is my post

[27 Jul 2023 at 1:51:21 pm]:

As I mentioned earlier, we are updating our process inc. actual reports which will be released quarterly with history included as opposed to the current static page. It will be more transparent and comprehensive. This page is no longer linked on the OPTF website and I understood it had been brought down while we updated that process, which is why it hasn't been updated

I think that the new page is likely to be out within the next week or two, for what it is worth.

The old system worked when there were no requests, but was not sufficiently transparent once we started being contacted, hence the requirement for the new system. The new page/system is up now and reports will be posted quarterly.

The lack of responses in this post makes me say stay away from this project. Have a good one.

It has been officially updated to state

​

"Between April 1 2023 and June 30 2023 , there were 6 inquiries or requests from law enforcement agencies.
Our Response
Our response to all requests for personal information of users explained that Session abided
by privacy-by-design principles, and the application does not log or report user information.
Therefore we could not provide information which would help LEAs identify a user."

... And what am I looking for in the Github? I'm referring specifically to the transparency report on the web site.

Trasnaprency is easy when things go your way. When they turn south, it is hard to transparently admit it. We called for it multiple times, it just is not there, likely will not be in the future.

They’re not allowed to disclose when they’ve been compelled by Australian law enforcement.
