Thad McIntosh Guyer (born January 29, 1950) is an American civil rights and whistleblower lawyer, lecturer and advisor with an international law practice based in Oregon. He is known for defending whistleblowers in retaliation cases at large institutions including the United Nations, World Bank, International Labour Organization and African Development Bank.

He is a trial, appellate and international litigation attorney with the Government Accountability Project, a non-profit whistleblower rights organization based in Washington, DC. He has successfully represented many whistleblowers and has been involved with more than 40 published legal precedents in U.S. federal and state courts.

Guyer developed an information theory framework for the proper functioning of whistleblower reporting channels that relies on entropy and Shannon information, among other concepts. The framework was first presented in Europe in 2021.
