The warrant canary is probably the existence of the sentence "Until such time, we are not even allowed to say if we've received zero of these reports". Watch that space.

Until the courts change the law and say they can say if they've received zero of these reports or not, they are not allowed to. There is no 'warrant canary'. It would be illegal, and Github is not telling you they are going to break the law, they are telling you they are supporting efforts to change the law, but until such time, they will have to comply, and they can't tell you if they received any. Until they receive 250, and then they can say they received somewhere in the range of 250-499.
