Is there a point to a company as large as Cloudflare even having a warrant canary? Half the internet goes through their servers. Of course the US government had or has hooks in them for something or other.

To legitimize the suspicion. That's always been the point.
No they don't.
And, it's not like there are really alternatives. So what if they were served a warrant? What are they, and the people, going to do about it?
Until the people go on a general strike and stop working, the gears will continue to turn and squeeze the vice tighter.

There was, is. There likely won't be, going forward.
