Inspired by this post by Ed Zitron on Bluesky, I wondered if Oracle would file for bankruptcy in the future, whether due to poor decisions, millions in losses in sectors that failed to meet their targets, the loss of lawsuits filed by users and/or customers, or other reasons.

What fate would you like to see for the products offered by this company?

Does Oracle own JavaScript? I thought JavaScript was developed by Netscape and that Oracle claimed to own the rights to Java, which is not the same thing.

Yep they inherited it from Sun. JavaScript the name.

JavaScript.tm
