Why? Linux is not the state. There is no entitlement to rights or presumption of innocence.

Linux is set up to benefit the linux development community. If UMinn has basically no positive contributions, a bunch of neutral ones and some negative ones banning seems the right call.

Its not about fairness, its about if the hurts outweigh the benefits.

Not only that, good faith actors who are associated with UMN can still contribute, just not in their official capacity as UMN associates (staff, students, researchers, etc).
