Q: Questions about Java SE 6
Would I be right that JAVA 8 from Oracle is the most secure version of Java but Java 6 SE from apple is also quite secure too? Am I also right that Java 6 SE will not show in system prefs if installed, that apple will always remove one version of Java from your machine completely before installing another, that by default Java 6 SE does not have a web mode unless you enable it through terminal and that Java 6 SE comes on everyone's machine but you have to enable it through terminal or download off apple.com, if you disable plugins in Safari then there is no way JAVA can be accessed, Chrome will not use JAVA not matter what you do and JAVA as a desktop app technology is totally fine from a security standpoint. Phew!
