Canonical does not maintain most of the software that comes with Ubuntu, at least not exclusively.
- yellowapple 7y agoThat article is about spyware Canonical themselves developed and baked into the desktop environment they developed specifically for Ubuntu.
- AsyncAwait 7y agoI know, my point is that the most complex pieces of software within Ubuntu are not primarily developed by Canonical and thus it's possible to maintain complex Linux software without having ads and tracking. The fact that Canonical had developed spyware has nothing to do with the Linux kernel, glibc, bash, GNOME, systemd, PulseAudio, all of which prove that you don't need ads and tracking to maintain Linux software.
