I am not saying they're not worthy of that contempt, merely that they don't care if they are, just if you're showing contempt for the process and violating the order
But to say that a canary I set up a decade ago is contemptuous of a court filing made a month ago is ridiculous.
No it's not: You show contempt for the idea they could demand you silently turn over information. It's seething out of your posts here on HN even.
I don't think it's right they can do this, but I do think it's quite clearly preemptively raising a middle finger to the whole thing; it is "I cross my fingers behind my back so my swears don't count" type of stuff that judges don't accept and toss you in jail for.
You don't get to outthink and out maneuver this crap: You have to beat it in the system.
