Oracle Sues Navajo Nation

Oracle Sues Navajo Nation

Oracle's legal team just discovered that "Navajo" contains "java" backwards and immediately filed a trademark infringement lawsuit. Because nothing says "protecting intellectual property" quite like suing an entire Native American nation over a linguistic coincidence that's existed for centuries before Java was even a twinkle in Sun Microsystems' eye.

The signature from "Toad Ellie Hep-End" (an anagram of "The Entitled People") at Oracle Corp is *chef's kiss*. Someone clearly spent their Friday afternoon crafting the perfect satirical jab at Oracle's notoriously aggressive legal department. Remember when they sued Google over Java APIs? Yeah, Oracle's lawyers have more billable hours than your production server has uptime issues.

Fun fact: Oracle acquired Java when they bought Sun Microsystems in 2010, and they've been monetizing and litigating it ever since with the enthusiasm of a developer who just discovered their code works on the first try.
