In 2026, security journalist Zack Whitaker reported in This Week in Security
that Oura confirmed it receives government demands for user health data but won't say how many it gets or how often it complies.
Big tech companies have published this kind of data since the 2013 Snowden revelations, and infrastructure companies like
Cloudflare,
GitHub, and
Reddit
have followed, treating transparency as a trust signal for their users.
The smart home and IoT world has the same transparency gap as wearables. A
2019 TechCrunch investigation
found most device makers either refused to answer questions about government requests or simply had no report.
Such hardware companies collecting intimate health data have largely never faced the same pressure that pushed software platforms to disclose.
