Ubuntu is under a pretty massive cyberattack right now, “Islamic Cyber Resistance in Iraq” taking responsibility. Stacks with the recent https://copy.fail/ linux kernel vulnerability, since normally distros like Ubuntu might send a patch to users. [image]

Wow! Those DDoS attacks on Ubuntu's infra are still going — Guess that's what happens when PlayStation pays millions per year for DDoS mitigations — The little guys like BlueSky, Mastodon, and Ubuntu are in the crosshairs
