Java is not only driven by Oracle, there are even independent JVMs. And then, there is OpenJDK, which is supported by many different big companies (Oracle, IBM, Apple, Microsoft, etc.) [1] As long as you are just _using_ the JDK, I see no problem regarding that Oracle may sue you. And besides that, I see no problems about Oracle _owning_ Java (idk if you really can say that Oracle _owns_ Java, I mean OpenJDK is open-source and free).
