The current warrant canary biz isn't that useful anyways. Everyone has known through offrecord backchannels, even before but definitely including PATRIOT hence, that govt[s] have beein doing this stuff. The big5 and many other internet major entities, all used their collective influence to... ignore free speech and whine permission of their taxing govt to publish useless banded 0-500 etc reporting games. They asked for and got a cute pdf coloring book full of how to do that to get an A Grade from teacher. Sites announcing new canaries are meetoo'd on twitter like a cute fad to get kudos and cred, and are hifived by morons and supposedly top privacy / antisecrecy thinkers. They're often not maintained / taken seriously. They're often signed by corporate role keys, who the fuck knows who all has access to those. Keys also often not even in the WoT. They don't provide any useful info to those most in need of knowing... the users... because they're not signed individually to each user in a context specific to each user. So much for any hope they might have of legit quashing before the entirety of their boring life gets irrevocably IMPORT TABLE'd into every govt db. And worst, they effect very little real change whatsoever. Remaining a quiet permissive slave to secrecy is hardly the way to handle secret law, secret courts and secret police. Hundreds of thousands of warrants a year with some secrecy terms in them. Not a single one published instantly upon receipt as freespeech. Just a bunch of sheep asking for permission, being told no and basically ignored. If these gigantic CEO's etc grew balls and published, or even just publicly lobbied spoke out much more often and freely and from a believable position of principle, they'd be instant heroes, complete with Trump like cult following and theme bands propping them from ten feet behind when they walk the streets. Even if they published, worst is they'd have to pay a little fine and do a year and a day in the minimun security federal social club, then back to CEO they go. And that's only if their collective march to the Supreme Court failed. Perhaps some are in on the secrect state game, or a kissass just in case. No company has ever really published, they either quit or asked permission or fought a legal fight. Many are now beginning to engineer and routing around things like damage. So this is not to diminish any action, because each one does add an amount into the sum total somewhere, and is thus needed, useful, and appreciated. Yet that plan is approaching 20 years of, well, not exactly reforming much of anything within governments, secret papers are still rolling in. It's just not the same. Only the real leakers of govt secrecy have accepted and taken real risk by speaking freely, without permission, into that sum. Maybe a win will be found somewhere, but probably not before cypherpunks take govt office. Or a colossal mass action the likes of which the internet and people have not mustered before. Probably both.
