Your sentences don't even parse. Perhaps ask someone else to rephrase
your points.

The culprit is not the JVM, but somebody writing an unsigned Applet
which masquerades as harmless but has found some way to cause harm
despite the efforts of the sandbox. I have written many Applets and I
have found the sandbox to be extremely strict, overly strict in my
opinion.

You seem to be arguing that no sandbox is better than a sandbox that
had two repaired flaws.

If you want a technical discussion, please refrain from the ad hominem
attacks.
