On: Ask HN: Anyone rewriting Java code due to new license costs?

If it becomes a problem it will be too late to not pay Oracle huge fees/fines for using it against the license. Oracle is known for their license enforcement, it might even bankrupt your company.

We hardly have any servers and are using an old version of JDK 8 under the old license. It does not keep me up at night.

In that case you're fine. I would still be wary of people accidentally updating. We IP blocked Oracle download servers from corporate network lol
