Apple has issued new updates to Java, Java for OS X 2012-003 and Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 8, to detect and remove the Flashback malware. In addition, this update will deactivate the Java browser plug-in, and Java Web Start, if they are unused for 35 days. Managing Java versions on Mac OSX is a nightmare. I recently switched over to using JDK 1.7, deleting JDK 6 from my MacBook entirely (I also had traces of JDK 5.

• Filippo October 14, 2017. Am running El Capitan, I need Java 6 Legacy for access to Italian govt. Mac was running current Java version, so I went through the bash commands to uninstall Java so to reinstall Java 6., incl. The root enabling.
• Java is, and always has been, the source of many woes. And security holes. Lots of security holes. There’s really no reason to have it installed anymore, especially now that Minecraft has its own bundled Java for both OS X and Windows.So today is the day you remove it.

There are a few answers on old questions about the same issue under Lion / Mountain Lion. Now with Java 1.8 and OS X 10.10 I wonder if anything has changed? Would be great to have exact removal steps.

It really is asked too much, for Oracle to provide a proper uninstaller?

To uninstall the JRE, you must have Administrator privileges and execute the remove commands either as root or by using the sudo(8) tool.

Remove one directory and one file (a symlink), as follows:

• Navigate to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins and remove the JavaAppletPlugin.plugin directory.

• Navigate to /Library/PreferencePanes and remove JavaControlPanel.prefpane.

Do not attempt to uninstall Java by removing the Java tools from /usr/bin. This directory is part of the system software and any changes will be reset by Apple the next time you perform an update of the OS

Done that. Looking good. I still think it's bad intentions behind not offering an uninstaller. Glad this is off my system.

Per Java.com:

To uninstall Java, you must have Administrator privileges.

1. Click on the Finder icon located in your dock
2. Click on Applications tab on the sidebar
3. In the Search box enter JavaAppletPlugin.plugin
4. This will find the JavaAppletPlugin.plugin file
5. Right click on JavaAppletPlugin.plugin and select Move to Trash
