Let Oracle bundle their bloated adware. Don't provide them a free service by telling them how stupid and self-destructive this practice is; if they're too dumb to work out that it isn't in their long-term interests, they deserve the consequences.
Publicly traded corporations are all the same; they're all equally obnoxious, a-moral, and hostile to customers when it suits their perceived interests. Oracle's Java adware is just a tiny little symptom of this; the actual problem is systemic to public corporations.
This kind of obnoxious user-hostility is what made me abandon closed source software for personal use. Additionally, my company (a private company) doesn't use any closed-source software in our systems, and never will. For us, open source software is better, more flexible, more supportable, and the nail in the coffin is that there simply aren't any vendors that can be trusted by a small organisation such as us.
Oracle don't care about little people signing a petition anyway. If one of their large corporate customers told them directly that this was unacceptable, they would stop it in a minute.
