Finally, been waiting for this moment since I've learned about Oracle. Would be well-deserved for them. Hope Larry Ellison loses his yacht.

- water-data-dude 1y agoBut there would be other consequences too, just consider the philanthropic organizations that Larry Ellison supports! Like the Ellison Medical Foundation, a non profit whose sole purpose is to keep Larry Ellison alive as long as possible!
- kstrauser 1y ago> to keep Larry Ellison alive This is called “begging the question”. I need some evidence that Ellison is not an undead.
- kergonath 1y agoAn undead lawn mower.
- lifestyleguru 1y agoThat dude literally launched medical foundation for his personal healthcare.
- hypeatei 1y agoThese people are in the class that never fails. Ellison won't lose anything.
- matsz 1y agoOne can dream.
- RobotToaster 1y agoI'm sure they said the same about Citizen Louis Capet.

- tomhow 1y agoPlease stop. This kind of rage-posting is not what HN is for. It's fine to think whatever you want about Mr Ellison or any other tech luminaries, and criticize them for whatever you like. But commenting in this style does nothing to harm Ellison, whilst making HN a dismal place for your fellow community members who do actually read what you post.
- elzbardico 1y agoFor me it was a joke. But it wouldn't be the first time something like that happens. I will take your advice with good will. thanks.
- onesociety2022 1y agoLarry Ellison owns 40% of Oracle ($625B market cap) as of today. So even if Oracle tanks and becomes a $60B company (10% of what is worth today), Larry will still be a billionaire worth $25B. He will keep his private islands and yachts.
