Unless the national security letter also forces them to keep doing these communications. Pretty sure you can be forced to lie by such a letter.
Not sure if that extends to being in a court though. Or if they would have to plead the 5th in such cases.

You can only be indirectly forced to stop issuing a warrant canary due to incompatibility with requirements not to report, in narrow cases (stricter standards than standard letters.) This would go hand in hand with a request anyway, so removing the canary would still serve its purpose and that’s what other search engines have done. But there has been absolutely nothing compelling active, creative lies like what DDG would be writing here if compromised.
