Ms. Keton, I am Senior Counsel at Oracle, responsible for intellectual property matters. I have been authorized to act on behalf of Oracle on this matter. We recently learned that someone named Jose Aldrin posted our JAVA Coffee Logo ® (shown below) to your Wikimedia Commons website, listing it as his own work, and suggesting that the logo is available for use and modification by anyone. See https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Java-Debugging-Tips-881x441.jpg. <image> Oracle understands that Mr. Aldrin placed the JAVA Coffee Logo on a background, and that the background may or may not be Mr. Aldrin's own work. But the logo itself is protected by copyright as well as by trademark registrations in the United States and throughout the world. It should not be listed on your website as available for use, and I have a good faith belief that Oracle did not authorize its posting there. We respectfully request that you remove this page immediately. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Under penalty of perjury, the foregoing is true and correct to the best of my knowledge. Regards, <redacted> Oracle <redacted>, Senior Counsel Oracle Legal | Trademark, Marketing & Copyright 500 Oracle Parkway Redwood Shores, CA 94065
