This whole thing I believe was a result of litigation with USGOV. Can the government entirely censor people acting onbehalf of a company from saying something? The answer was something like "It can prevent you from stating specific details but it cannot prevent you from making general statements on whether you have received a warrant or force speech by preventing you from taking down the canary" they even came up with a spefific granularity that you can state regarding the number of warrants you received. But if I was the gov, I would go to your webhost or colo provider first, the gag order would prevent them from telling the subject like rsync.net and the search warrant would allow access to read and tamper with code and data. This is why GPG signing is great, private keys won't be on devices you don't physically control if you do it right. And also why you shouldn't trust native encryption of cloud providers like iCloud where ultimately you are not managing the private key directly.
