I don’t think many people with strong moral-tech compasses join oracle, so the small walk out sounds about right.<p>When I worked at Oracle no one I interacted with even knew about the shady stuff oracle has and is currently doing. (Except for casually joking about Larry’s eccentric billionaire faults).

&quot;Oracle now says this was an accident. According to a spokesperson, the site was temporarily flagged by anti-virus software but was whitelisted once the issue was noticed.&quot;<p>stuff like this makes my blood boil. it&#x27;s obvious that this is just a legal defense, but it feels so insulting to the reader&#x2F;listener.

I have a hard time reconciling working for Oracle&#x2F;Ellison and being that sensitive to ethical issues.
