Can I get in trouble for not giving Oracle credit in my Java game?
<p>So I was planning on making a game for my favorite Youtuber, and I'm not sure if I will get into trouble with Oracle (since I am making it in Java) if I don't give credit to them for using their programming language. I couldn't find anything on the internet for this, so don't get mad at me if this is obvious. I just want to be sure I'm not going to have to deal with some legal stuff. </p>

<p>P.S. If you know a place to upload JAR files so people may download them, feel free to tell me. It would also help to know how I can make sure that nobody steals my game and takes credit for it. This isn't as important as what is above, so you don't need to answer it.</p>

<p>As far as I can tell, the <a href="http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/terms/license/index.html" rel="nofollow">Oracle Binary Licence Agreement</a> doesn't say much.</p>

<p>If you're really concerned, it's better to be safe than sorry. Just add a quick note, <em>this app was written with Java!</em>, but make sure not to make it look as if Oracle endorses/promotes the app.</p>

<p>If you're willing to release the source code and binaries, you may like Github. You may have fun looking around, learning about Open Source. It's a popular licensing model that allows people to use libraries for a variety of uses. </p>
