SpyLedger

An open, source-cited record of the surveillance-industry — the public corporate identity and government-designation status of the vendors who build spyware, deep-packet inspection, and mass-surveillance tooling. Every designation is rebuilt from a primary government source and linked.

A record of official government actions, not an allegation. Every entry restates a public designation by a named authority, with a primary-source link. SpyLedger does not itself accuse any company of wrongdoing, and a designation carries only the specific legal meaning its authority gives it. To dispute or correct an entry, contact us.

The surveillance-technology industry is documented in scattered government actions — a US Commerce export-control listing here, a Treasury sanction there, an FCC equipment rule somewhere else — each with different legal force. SpyLedger gathers those public facts into one graded, sourced record for 20 marquee vendors, so the designation status of a company can be read at a glance and cited. It tracks the watchers, not the watched: it documents vendors and the governments that regulate them, never surveillance targets.

What v0 publishes — and what it does not

SpyLedger v0 publishes only public corporate identity and government-designation status, each rebuilt from a primary public-domain feed and linked. It deliberately does not publish customer-deployment claims (which government uses which product), targeting data, or any personal information below the corporate-officer line. Designation-status claims that an entity is restricted are statements of public government record; where a vendor has no designation, that is stated plainly rather than implied otherwise. See the methodology for the authority taxonomy, the scope rules, and the corrections channel.
