Finally, been waiting for this moment since I've learned about Oracle. Would be well-deserved for them. Hope Larry Ellison loses his yacht.

But there would be other consequences too, just consider the philanthropic organizations that Larry Ellison supports! Like the Ellison Medical Foundation, a non profit whose sole purpose is to keep Larry Ellison alive as long as possible!

This is called “begging the question”. I need some evidence that Ellison is not an undead.

That dude literally launched medical foundation for his personal healthcare.

Larry Ellison owns 40% of Oracle ($625B market cap) as of today. So even if Oracle tanks and becomes a $60B company (10% of what is worth today), Larry will still be a billionaire worth $25B. He will keep his private islands and yachts.

These people are in the class that never fails. Ellison won't lose anything.

I'm sure they said the same about Citizen Louis Capet.

One can dream.

Please stop. This kind of rage-posting is not what HN is for. It's fine to think whatever you want about Mr Ellison or any other tech luminaries, and criticize them for whatever you like. But commenting in this style does nothing to harm Ellison, whilst making HN a dismal place for your fellow community members who do actually read what you post.
