Has anyone actually tested a warrant canary in court yet? It seems pretty transparent to me that if a court order says you can’t publish that it’s been received

Has anyone actually tested a warrant canary in court yet? It seems pretty transparent to me that if a court order says you can’t publish that it’s been received that also covers continuing to update the canary.
- URSpider94 6y agoI don't know if it's been explicitly tested, but the concept of the canary was developed specifically because there's strong case law that the government can in rare cases compel your silence, but pretty much can never command you to speak specific language (can't put words in your mouth).
