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.

"they've been called soos" is not the same as "their name is pronounced soos". If they state it as an acceptable pronunciation (similar to ikea) then that's different. They instead released a video telling people how to say it correctly.
They released a joke video, as evident by the singing and the fact the kids still said it "wrong" at the end. I think they are very aware and understand that people will still call them Soos.
And yet it is still an incorrect pronunciation. You can't dispute that. Just because you will "do what you want to" doesn't mean it's right. Own it - you say the word wrong.
I never disputed it. I said I don't care. They can pronounce it however they want. In regular conversation with people around me, I'll call it whatever I want.
