"You can sign the petition here. So far, 6,000 people have done so,"

6000 people? The more appropriate subject here would be "Most users don't care about Java bloatware".




I'm skeptical about whether signing a petition would do any good and whether it'd be worth the effort. If Oracle gave a crap, it already wouldn't be an issue. I expect a lot more people care about this issue than signed the petition. I know I'm one.


I agree with it and don't see why your comment has been downvoted. 6000 people signing is pretty small compared to the scale of Java. That negligible number is more a sign for Oracle that they can bundle whatever crapware they want with Java.


They don't, because they just want to be able to play Minecraft.
