The flip side which I'll iterate again is that it's making a bad impression for users who demand an open system. To call me irresponsible for bringing up an issue which you admit yourself is a problem, simply concretes my theories that Sun wants to control how we act and what we say, especially when it pertains to their products. The issue is with their products, and this is a quite draconian request to silence people such as myself for stirring up a beehive. You should respect all feedback as long as it isn't blatantly degrading your image without reason, and there's more than enough reason here to be concerned with Sun's lack of transparency.
Not even a peep comes from the top of the snake about this problem, and anyone that can be construed to be a Sun employee or lackey reminds me of why I hate dealing with any customer support for any major carrier of any service in any industry. Blame the customer, shoot his head off and bury the news, it's all the same and Sun has not changed like they want people to believe. I clearly understand NDAs and closed blobs as well as right to privacy on stack traces and custom system configuration files, etc., but this is just ludicrous when bugs are removed without even a placeholder or public message to say why and IF it will ever be put back into reach by the people that don't have a ultra super power ranger department of Sun defense biometric access card. It was not my intention to condemn Sun but I respectfully deny any responsibility for irrefutably tarnishing their image, when the matter of the discussion clearly revolves around information, or lack thereof. Nothing even useful to be made available when such bugs are known about is an asinine event and a PR problem, but is also a quality control and public perspective concern about how Sun does business.
