Gartner: Oracle probes orgs for Java compliance after new licensing terms

WTF?

Is there still _any_ reason to run Oracle-branded Java?

Old, non-portable Java 8 code can stay on old, license-free Java versions.

New stuff under active development can be run on OpenJDK/Temurin or derivates.

What use cases of Java do really require considering this Oracle-extortion scheme?
