IMO it contradicts their message. From wikipedia: It is named after the Southern African philosophy of Ubuntu ("humanity towards others")

  There is some truth in what you say, but that line of reasoning can quickly go out of hand. I mean, you could also argue that every time they increase their system requirements, they do not act out of humanity towards others. Also, I can imagine that Canonical is looking out for more and better sources of revenue. A dead Ubuntu is of no use to anyone either.

    Nod. They certainly have the right to change direction to sustain, but the purpose of their mission continues to become blurrier.

      I think their mission revolves more around Bug #1 in Ubuntu: “Microsoft has a majority market share”.
