Feel free to use it, as long as you're willing to pay lawyers to fight them when they decide otherwise.
You're just spreading FUD now.
It's just my reasoning as to why I won't use Oracle products. Feel free to put your own company at risk.
I f'ing love how you're blaming me personally. Don't be a dick.
BTW - don't mistake "cynicism" for "reasoning".
Sorry, I have my own company, my choices matter, you should blame whomever made that choice for you.
It's not necessarily cynicism if it's based on previous patterns of behavior. Oracle reveals themselves to be run by bullies again and again and I choose to not put myself at risk. You do you.
It’s not necessarily cynicism if it’s based on previous patterns of behavior.
It's exactly what it is because you're ignoring facts that contradict your position because "I've been hurt before". The OpenJDK license is currently the MOST permissive it's ever been. And that was done by Oracle which is shocking to me.
The GPL is an old and well accepted license and there are lots of groups who will jump to defend it. And there are lots of companies backing the OpenJDK that aren't Oracle. Oracle would need to fight Amazon, Microsoft, IBM (RedHat), the Eclipse Foundations, etc. if they wanted to change that.
Sorry, no, I will not go back to my abuser because they say it's different this time.
Like I said - cynicism.
Reality.
Buddy I'd love to introduce you to reality some day.
Is that a threat?
Only if you fear reality?
Depends on how you "introduce me to reality"
Do you always make vague threats when someone disagrees with you on the internet?
