I'm not sure about doing a warrant canary tbh. It's going to be another responsibility to keep up on a regular basis (Raddle updated their canary monthly before they've made it irregular, and other companies do it every 6 months). Updating the canary itself is not the hard part (until you get an actual gag order), but rather remembering to do it lol. If you forget, users might think jstpst got compromised when it's not

If you're going to do it anyway, it might be a good idea to have at least one admin who is outside of 14 Eyes doing the cryptographic signing, so that a government agency from those countries couldn't just force an admin here to update the canary

hmm, i think the admins and sysadmins are all in the united states lol

i can proudly say no govt agencies have asked me to do anything wrt jstpst, but i would also fold immediately if asked, so, fair warning
