But why? They must really hate snaps…
I mean…
I suspected LLM scrappers when hearing about the DDOS attack. Those are doing a continuous DDOS on many projects.

Fuck Ubuntu and their selling out. Canonical bitched out ages ago. Hope those Iran folks are okay though. What a mess.
I get not liking Canonical, but how does that justify a random Pro-Iran group DDoSing them? Did Canonical do something that specifically harmed Iranians?
Did Iran do anything that specifically harmed Americans, before US decidingt to blow shit up?
Is Canonical a US company? Why blame them for the US being shit?
Hasn’t the UK been helping USA with this “war”
What does this have anything to do with Canonical?
Hasn’t the UK been helping with this “war”. If so, then they are just putting pressure where they can
Their pressure is doing nothing to stop the war then. Canonical is not the UK. They might be located in the UK, but attacking them does nothing to the UK government.
Also, none of this has anything to do with the US attacking Iran, so I still don’t understand what that has to do with anything.
Its the old…Canonical complains to UK government, UK government maybe listens
Probably sold everyone’s ahit to fascists lie everyone else. Honestly, I can’t recall why I don’t favor them. I formed that opinion probably over 15 years ago.
