Google and Mozilla each announced this week that their Web browsers will be dropping default support for Adobe Flash, citing the plug-in software’s newly discovered vulnerabilities to cyberattacks. These moves came only a few days after Facebook’s chief of security called for Adobe to set an ‘end of life’ date for the oft-exploited 20-year-old platform. Even if you don’t exactly know what Adobe Flash is, this is important news. However, while web browsers have opted to drop the plug-in, it’s important you are also aware removing Flash will disrupt your video experience on many websites.
The only flash would be the ads, but not having flash should just cause the ads to fail. As always if you come across an ad that is causing issues I want to know about it so I can block it.
