| My kids are in the middle of their finals week. What a mess. Universities know nothing, Canvas claims to be in a "scheduled maintenance", and one Prof claims to "not have any copies of material offline" which seems pretty negligent. Sounds like one section of a popular class will be doing paper exams while other sections had Canvas-based "half points for 2nd attempt"-type exams earlier today. How soon before names & grades appear in data dumps? This would be like TurboTax "scheduling maintenance" on April 14th in the US. |

| The "Scheduled Maintenance" is just total B.S. and just honestly makes them look worse. Apparently according to their status pages this is what 99.996% uptime looks like. Pay attention lol. |

There is a lot of people who likely are unaware the latest outage is because they were compromised again. Them marking the incident as 'Under Maintenance' means the status page isn't reporting this as an outage and adding to downtime%. | | |

| ▲ | rupx 7 hours ago | parent [-] | | Correct. The incident yesterday was technically from April 28th, with most communications coming out on the 2nd and 3rd, with it being "Resolved" yesterday. This incident is the second attack, because they failed to secure their infra again. Everything being reported is a bit delayed, which makes it seem like this is a single attack, not technically two instances. |

| Crazy that kids data are getting leaked before they even had a chance to properly understand the consequences and consent to it being used |
