Would have really liked to have known about that.
It was announced on jdk-dev at the time it was launched, with a follow-up
reminder one week later:

Thanks for that link. I see the announcement said
The results of the survey will be made public after the survey closes.
That email thread seems to end with the week-later reminder, but I think
I found the followup [1].
It links to the results on SurveyMonkey [2], which seem to be viewable
if one whitelists
https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.surveymonkey.com__;!!GqivPVa7Brio!PQjV64chVEWfRM5VPM45uJ1dPiIsGzyukEkPp1I8jCoJWUg65dwS9cshHXnCziOu$
, cdnjs.cloudflare.com, and
prod.smassets.net.
Those results are very incomplete (it says there were only 16 responses
when there were more). I don't know what happened to the rest of the
responses, perhaps SurveyMonkey deleted many of them over time for some
reason. The page should probably be deleted as it is no longer accurate.
I do have a PDF of all the results that I saved locally, but I have no
plans to go over that again or post that right now.
It also refers to a blog post [3], no longer a good link; also the only
occurrence of that URL in the Wayback Machine is a November 2020 archive
of its "The content that you're looking [sic] is no longer on this page"
page [4].
It was automatically deleted, probably because I didn't post enough ...
Is it possible the blogs.oracle.com URL structure just got rearranged?
Is there a currently usable link? (My search there for "security manager
survey" produces 742 results, six at a time; I haven't found it yet.)
Ironically, I easily found a March 2021 blog post [5] "Quiz yourself:
Using the SecurityManager class in Java", from which a reader might
have come away confident the thing was a going concern.
This is just a quiz about how to use some of the SecurityManager APIs by
some people who write about Java technology.
