Hey all this is an excellent idea! You all beat me to Micah Lee's repository. I have a few comrades who have already deployed a warrant canary and here is what they have done. They submit routine updates to their webpage every few months with a GPG signed message that says "we have not received any NSLs or been contacted by law enforcement about our members". Then also post the date of the message and a note about how often it is updated (I believe every few weeks). I think we should do this with a GPG key that multiple members control (split among a few members). I believe the webpage I'm thinking of is <a href="http://libraryfreedomproject.org">libraryfreedomproject.org</a> <br><br>Freddy<br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jun 10, 2015 at 12:30 Lincoln Bryant <<a href="mailto:lincolnb@uchicago.edu">lincolnb@uchicago.edu</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div style="word-wrap:break-word">Seems like the Canary Watch website is powered by user submission, and checks aren't done routinely.
