But I guess the computer sophistication required to do this is currently beyond the abilities of the targeted people. It is important to note that the group are not undergoing a technological attack. The government forces are utilizing their ability to investigate software piracy to physically enter the targeted groups' spaces and seize their computers. It is clear that running Ubuntu is not going to prevent them from being able to do this, since they had no issues seizing computers that had legitimate versions of Windows on them. While it is fine to suggest that they should "be ready to discard their computers if needed", most non-profit groups that I have come across do not have the financial resources to purchase new computers if all of their existing ones are taken.
