➜ JEP 396: Strongly Encapsulate JDK Internals by Default
Strongly encapsulate all internal elements of the JDK by default, except for 
critical internal APIs such as sun.misc.Unsafe. Allow end users to choose the 
relaxed strong encapsulation that has been the default since JDK 9.

With this change, the default value of the launcher option --illegal-access is 
now deny rather than permit. As a consequence, existing code that uses most 
internal classes, methods, or fields of the JDK will fail to run. Such code can 
be made to run on JDK 16 by specifying --illegal-access=permit. That option 
will, however, be removed in a future release.
