Oracle is officially evil.

Via Florian Mueller (FOSS Patents), in a post at Business Insider, Mueller describes how Oracle wants to increase potential damages awarded by any IP infringement by Google over Java, by calculating Google's NON-MOBILE business going back 7 years.

Now hold on...7 years?  That's before Google even brought in Andy Rubin and his concept of Android -- 2005.  And NON-MOBILE business?  WTF?

Larry Ellison has bought the nut farm.  And Oracle is now, officially evil.

UPDATE: CNET gets the scoop: Oracle tried to erase all history of former Sun CEO's blog praising Google for choosing Java, but has been caught in the act. This is what Sun's former CEO said at the time (2007):

"Today is an incredible day for the open source community, and a massive endorsement of two of the industry's most prolific free software communities, Java and Linux." -- Jonathan Schwartz

Oracle is now officially worse than evil: they're unethical jerks.
