[Edit: the article has now been updated to remove this paragraph 🤣]
"An online learning system used by the University of Auckland and the Auckland University of Auckland (AUT), has been hit by a global data hacking incident."
Are you honestly telling me that "Auckland University of Auckland" and "University of Auckland" are two _different_ institutions? 🤯
This is a deeply unserious country.

@Phil_Tanner@mastodon.philtanner.com Two different institutions across the street from each other. And one of them considers itself more prestigious, so people there get upset if you acknowledge the existence of the other.
