From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

As someone interviewing for Canonical's Security team (they make you do like 10 interviews, I'm like 5 deep over 3 weeks), I cannot imagine anyone security-minded writing that comment. It either:
Can you prove that your joining Canonical (picture proof), as you know, people can be anything in the internet while they're in their parent's basement.
If you are, what type of interview questions do they ask?
Vim or emacs?
