By mistake, I tried the command sudo apt-get update while I was connected by vpn. However, I closed the vpn connection and now when I try to update the following error appears:

E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu focal Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

Is this a vpn issue or an IP issue? I am unable to figure it out. Please suggest.

    The PPA (http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu) does not support focal/20.04, you should not have added it to your system, VPN is not your issue. – guiverc May 21 '20 at 11:14
  • I have not manually added it, how do I fix this issue? – Sayantan Ghosh May 21 '20 at 11:15

    A new install has no 3rd party (PPA) added, they are not official repositories, and are added by a user on your system with sudo access. Check whomever has been granted sudo privileges on your system, as someone has added it post-install. – guiverc May 21 '20 at 11:16
