As I understand, the Java > browser plugin is still proprietary, and not part of OpenJDK. Of the ones that I know of (Flash, Java, Silverlight, and QuickTime) none of them are free software. The vast majority of websites that used these technologies have since moved away as plugins have been disabled by default in browsers starting four or five years ago (https://webkit.org/blog/6589/next-steps-for-legacy-plug-ins/) and were never available to begin with on mobile browsers.
