Writing iron-clad, deal-with-the-devil level contracts that cannot be broken by mere customers. And nipping open-source projects in the bud via mergers and acquisitions.
These bastards grifted $300 million dollars from my state to build a single website for the Healthcare exchange after the ACA was passed. It never once worked and was scrapped for the federal government’s own version immediately after its “release.” To be fair, I also blame our state leaders for this as even your average moron could see this coming from a mile away. Even if it did work, who the fuck would spend 1/3 of a billion dollars to build a webpage.
I totally agree which is why i said even an average moron would have seen through this. They only like to pretend to be working for the people when elections are near.
I can’t believe Oracle has 10,000 employees to begin with. What the hell are they doing that even needs that many people to begin with?

Java, mysql, vmware…
You should see their license fees
They have way more than 100,000 employees
Firing 30,000 of them. You can’t fire people if you don’t hire them in the first place. And as you all know stock price jumps after big layoffs.
Yeah, just like the other comment: likely mostly lawyers, lobbyists and trolls of all colors.
