Does somebody else have the same error when running sudo apt update?

UPDATE 2021-12-25:

Using a vpn somehow makes me being able to run sudo apt update without any errors.

Run : `sysctl net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=0` and run `apt update` again.

@someone I don't use a modem. The `sysctl net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=0` command didn't solve my problem.
Someone avatar

Try running `sudo apt-get update` instead of `sudo apt update` Are you using cellular data or wireless wifi? Do you use BSNL? I found that ;BSNL don't support ipv6 which is causing the errors.

I’m voting to close this question because the problem solved of itself and I couldn't find any reason why the problem went away. Written by the author of this question.

I have the same issue, but only with VPN connection (IP 163.XXX.XXX.XXX). With no VPN (IP 77.XXX.XXX.XXX) its Ok. Probably problem in launchpad.net firewall (or traffic filter, or something like that).

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
