Websites that fear that the Feds will demand secret access to their customers' data often address that fear via posting canary notices.
The concept is that if the canary notice is not reposted on schedule, then it means that the website was forced to give the Feds customer data while the Feds also force the website to remain silent about that.
I am not quite sure why the Feds wouldn't be able to force the website to post a fraudulent canary, but it may be a limitation on being able to compel speech.
Storj hadn't updated their canary since 2/1/18 as of last night.
Thankfully, Storj did finally update it this morning to be valid for the month of March.
