#2Is it just me, or is the childish, mocking tone in the OP simultaneously baffling and totally befitting of the point they're trying to make? I understand that they're frustrated by the repeated submission of automated security vulnerability reports, but blanketing it entirely as "reverse engineering" and responding to it like this is... a strange approach.
Did someone at Oracle actually think that this was the best way to make this point?

In my opinion she is being paid for propaganda in support of Oracle. By that I mean the message is not beneficial to the whole population of Oracle Users, but only to Oracle Corporate.

If you read her previous posts you'll see it's the exact same tone and writing style. I think the claims of hacking are a way for people to express their incredulity and not meant seriously.

#9Can some infosec person speak to her strongest claim, that static analysis gives "basically 100% false positives" and wastes the team's time?

#10Wow. Someone's been hitting the Kool-Aid pretty hard.
I've seen this institutional hubris first-hand. The unshakable belief (typically by nontechnical management) that all of the smartest people in the world are employed here, working for me.
