Yep, yet another one to throw in the bin. A few weeks ago, Lunduke 
suggested that they were alright except for the Snap and Mir 
controversies. It looks like that changed.

You also have to take into account where Canonical is located. In South 
Africa. That might have some effect on what's required of companies by the 
government.

That's a good point. I just wonder why Canonical would be worried about 
there not being enough negroes in the company when that's the majority 
of South Africa. Of course, I imagine that very few of them can do 
anything other than murder and rape. Reading must be a real struggle.

I don't use it, but I'm going to change the only person I know who uses
Ubuntu to switch.  He would definately not be happy about this move from
Canonical, and would be more than happy I'm sure, to move to an
alternative like LMDE.
