Jokes are only funny when they have an ounce of truth to them.

Oracle was the one who open-sourced the whole of the JDK, and is the main contributor to OpenJDK by far, which is completely open-source with the same license as the Linux kernel. It's fine to criticize them on e.g. Oracle db licenses and stuff like that, but they have been excellent stewards of Java and all the bad language around this java lawyering stuff is just FUD.
