        https://portal.malibal.com/kb/a1052/...hip-to-canada/ used to state, simply, "No." (as still seen on Google searches right now)

          Nice try but they won't unban whatever banned country you're posting this from.

            Next article from Malibal:
            "Effective today, we have banned the Milky Way Galaxy and all organisms within it after a bacterial infection caused a rash in the pinky finger of one of our people trying to work on coreboot. This bacteria family in question is a well-known coreboot supporter has residence on a small planet, known as Earth, of the Milky Way Galaxy. The bacteria in question have also been extremely unprofessional and used profanity excessively"

              Excessive profanity is not an inappropriate professional response in some situations.

                I would try to get Austria banned, but they already did ban it (and Luxembourg) when they banned Germany, for some reason.

                  I looked over their website, the about page was a big humorous.
                  A bit pretentious for my tastes, not a company I would be inclined to do business with in the first place.
                  Sad it ended up this way.

                    It was obvious from a few sentences into MALIBAL's screed that they were absolute bozos who had no business running any company.
                    "they"

                    (It's one person)

                      If more consumers did that (vote with feet / wallet / appropriately scathing feedback) we might have more companies that don't suck at UX / QC / ...
