If it’s just for Java that’s not really a problem. They might be able to run the applet directly with appletviewer, or repackage it for Java Web Start. Otherwise, CheerpJ has a solution for continuing to run the applet in the browser by con

That's an awful lot of work just because Amazon can't charge the right account. It also doesn't necessarily solve the problem. The charges could accumulate in their systems until Amazon hands them to a debt collector, or the
