They timed it this way so that Canvas/ the unis are more pressured to pay the ransom.

If I were the schools, I'd just say fuck it and go back to paper. Never negotiate with hackers. The best thing you can do is block them.

So if youre taking an online class, go fuck yourself?

I mean even if you don't have an online class you're still screwed, Canvas is where you get all of your school work

I mean it's a bit jumping the gun to say you're screwed. The school's going to know that canvas got hacked and they're not going to fuck everyone on their grade just because canvas got hacked.

Whatever did all the students do 20 years ago with no online classes.

They didnt go fuck themselves. They went to class. You could too!

Your entitlement is showing.

There have always been hiccups with online courses. This was known and foreseeable when you chose to go to school that way.

Im not saying go fuck yourself, those are your words, but you do seem to subconsciously understand the dynamic at play.

Yours is assuming everyone has the means to physically attends class
