Nothing surprising or unexpected in that.

The browser vendors are dropping support for the required tie in.

Demand for applet based solutions are very close to zero.

Very natural to mark these classes as deprecated.

If they added more prompts "Are you really sure you want to run
this applet?", "Are you really really sure you want to run
this applet?" and "Are you really really really sure you want
to run this applet?" then it would have been a joke.
