CAs have revoked certs before, but usually because of some technical issue (apple using the wrong length of key, owning entity ceasing to exist or so on), or because of direct government interference (certs revoked because of sanctions on the purchaser's country of origin), or because the certificate authority itself was compromised. Never because of the content the cert was verifying. I remember when they were trying to get LE to revoke KF's certs last year, or the year before, and LE told them to go ACK themselves. I hope they don't go back on that stance now that the dam has been breached.
