Sun Microsystems
As a Sun Microsystems engineer, Patrick Naughton became frustrated with the state of Sun's C and C API (application programming interface) and its tools. While considering moving to NeXT, Naughton was offered the opportunity to work on new technology and thus the Stealth Project began.
The Stealth Project was soon renamed the Green Project with James Gosling and Mike Sheridan joining Naughton. Together with other engineers, they began working in a small office on Sand Hill Road in Menlo Park, California. They are trying to develop new technology for the next generation of smart device programming, which Sun hopes to be a great new opportunity.
In June and July 1994, after three days of brainstorming with John Gage, Science Director for Sun, James Gosling, Bill Joy, Naughton, Wayne Rosing and Eric Schmidt, the team re-targeted the platform for the World Wide Web. They feel that with the advent of the first graphical web browser, Mosaic, the Internet is evolving into a highly interactive medium they imagine for cable TV. As a prototype, Naughton wrote a small browser, WebRunner, then renamed HotJava.
After Sun
In 1994, Naughton stopped Sun for Starwave (later Paul Allen's) to develop a Java server application for the website. He is the author of "The Java Handbook", (ISBNÃ, 0-07-882199-1, Osborne, 1995) and co-author Java: Full Reference , with Herbert Schildt (ISBNÃ, 0- 07- 882231-9, Osborne, 1996)
In 1998, Walt Disney Internet Group acquired Starwave and merged it with Infoseek at Go Network. As a result, Naughton became executive vice president of Infoseek.
After his arrest in 1999, Naughton was fired from Infoseek.

Sex splits and beliefs
On September 14, 1999, Naughton flew from Seattle to Los Angeles with a private Disney jet. expecting a five-foot-tall blond girl to wait at a dock near a roller coaster, carrying a green backpack as ordered by Naughton. Naughton has written to him about love and sex and that he "wants to get [himself] alone in his hotel room and have a strip [him] naked for him". Naughton has arranged this meeting, posing as "Hot Seattle", her online predator handler in an online chat room called "father & daughter". The "girl" is actually an FBI agent.
Two days later, he was arrested by the FBI and accused of traveling in interstate commerce with a view to having sex with a minor, violating 18 U.S.C. Ã,§2423 (b). After the trial ended with a hanging jury, Naughton made a plea agreement in which he took a reduction in punishment and admitted that he traveled from Seattle to Los Angeles last September with a "dominant purpose" to engage in sexual acts with "KrisLA", his online chat buddy believe is a 13-year-old girl. He ended up not serving a prison term, in exchange for working for the FBI for free for a year.
New Defense
His line of defense is that he states that he was persuaded to participate online in exercises playing the role of sexual rituals, dealing with adult women who act as a girl. His then-novel defense, known as a fantasy defense for pedophiles.
