A page as big as Reddit has never before gotten a warrant? Are you kidding?

"As of January 29, 2015"

The whole point is that between when the notice was added and when it was removed, it was true.  By removing it, it's a legal loophole around a gag order.  This would be the first warrant that's been issued since Jan 29, 2015.

I know. That's...pretty impressive considering a lot of threats and grooming happen on the internet on a daily basis. I'd expect a site like Reddit to get hundreds of requests A DAY.

The canary isn't used for public warrants, just the special secret kind.
