    Kirkland: More people use Ubuntu than anyone actually knows
    Dustin Kirkland feels
    that Ubuntu users have been undercounted
    , and so has put together a
    census of his own. "Ever watch a movie on Netflix? You were served
    by Ubuntu. Ever hitch a ride with Uber or Lyft? Your mobile app is
    talking to Ubuntu servers on the backend. Did you enjoy watching The
    Hobbit? Hunger Games? Avengers? Avatar? All rendered on Ubuntu at WETA
    Digital.
    " In the end, he says, there are over one billion Ubuntu
    users.
