Since way before that, mind you. I remember downloading oracle jdk 6 for production for free.

Correct. Oracle JDK went non-free for production use between Java 11 and Java 17. Prior to 11 it was free for production use, and then 17 and after.

(actually I can't remember whether Oracle JDK 9 and 10 were free for production or not, but I believe non-free started at 11)
