Avoid Java In All Cases; Kill It Off The Internet; Oracle Sucks
They are also blocking Apple Java 1.6! Don't know where XProtect.meta.plist screenshot is from, but that is not what Apple pushed out this morning.
Here's what it really is! . . .
Hope that helps someone!
I hope that doesn't get someone's Mac PWNed.
Most likely, all of us here are responsible users, as opposed to LUSERS. Nonetheless, I don't want anyone, except those in dire need or who know how to responsibly avoid malware, knowing how to bypass Apple's wisdom here.
Yes, Apple want to maintain a reputation as being proactive against Apple-user targeted malware. They also don't want any LUSER lawsuits against them. But I also believe Oracle is too stupid and lazy to ever take their severe Java security hell seriously.
Therefore, the sooner Java is killed off the Internet, the better for everyone.
Conspiracy theorists who think they're being shoved into another Apple proprietary 'walled garden' can bite themselves. Computer security takes precedence over your paranoia or ignorance.
