The failure mode of their warrant canary is not that you stop getting email, but that other people start getting your email too.

Sure. But you see, the prudent assumption is that adversaries always get all your email :)

Your comment is a distraction, not a contribution. People came here to discuss whether a warrant canary had died, not to hear you trot out security 101 cliches.
