Without disclosing too much of your internal procedures, can you say if you have a mechanism in place to prevent an American being compelled by American courts to tell a Swiss national that it is okay to update the canary? Under a gag order, the American presumably cannot inform coworkers in other countries that they are under a gag order.
- venomsnake 13y agoUnless you put the foreign nationals in charge. In that case if their cooperation is needed for compliance with the order you have to tell them or they could just reject.
- jlgreco 13y agoTrue, you just need to assign them enough authority that their approval is a technical requirement for compliance. You would then have to rely on them evaluating the provenance of the order and stopping any canary related activity if they get an order that is suspect. I don't think it is an unsolvable problem, it just takes some tricky thinking to implement if you have more than one person in your organization.
