Java on the Mac is malware

• arxanas 14y ago
  “the implementation of Java on Mac reeks of hacks, bad design, and high risk” does not constitute malware.

  Why is Java linked to browsers at all? All the Java security holes seen mostly are exploited through a browser plugin - but I've never, ever needed the browser plugin, I just need jdk/jre to run offline apps..

  You're a fool if you think that is true. Java is one of the most secure technology and the problem is with Browsers and not the language. If you disable the Java plugin until the fix comes from Browsers you should be just fine.
