I will be putting a warrant canary in place over the next several hours.(not sure exactly how long this is going to take all depends on what actually gets done.) My first idea is I create a sub called canary or something similar and create a seperate account. I will be the only one with the password to this account. I may share that password with my wife and no one else. I will create a canary and post a new warrant canary today and then on the first of every month. This would let me remove the canary page and just do it through the sub. What does everyone think?

Edit: a word

I don't understand how having a separate account own the canary makes it any better. Couldn't someone take over that account just as easily as yours? I'm probably missing something obvious. :) Just wondering out loud. I find these things pretty interesting given all the talk about them lately.

Well the seperate account is an extra layer of security. I know its not best practice but this account I just used a standard password varient for. That account it would be something completely random that only 2 people would know.

I suppose they could but it’s less likely that both accounts get taken over. As long as I keep a few admin accounts open it keeps my options open and keeping that function separate makes sense to me for now.
