First I believe it is relly wrong to grant any signed applet
AllPermission. It allows internet banks, tax authoritis, photo printing
operations, etc access to our computers.

Also I could not find a way to regain control over which applet get
control over my Debian accound.

using 
  permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "usePolicy";
in ~/.java.policy does not work.

Check this to test java applet permission (this for selfsigned applet on
site with self-signed SSL certificate)

Just because I use a netbank or det danish digital signature does not
men that I want to allow them to read or write any file on my user account.
