This was confirmed by Google, and that those from Adobe seem to have overwhelmed their peers with so many security patches that had to be applied for Flash to continue working.
Let's remember that a couple of months ago, it was Firefox (Mozilla Foundation) that decided to lower its thumb to Adobe's web animation software.
Google also searches; just like other browser developers; promote the use and standardize HTML5 as a base language for websites, considered much more efficient when using the resources of electronic devices.
The changes
Blocking flash in browsers will bring a balance to web browsing, but where will the end user notice it?
On any website that has flash content and this is blocked by browsers, the "spaces" will remain undisplayed in the content. such as:
- Animated advertising banners, generally in online newspapers
- Video/audio players used for streaming
- Online games among others.
Surely if the user wants to see the flash content, they must activate them manually, which becomes one more action to perform when browsing, which the vast majority of regular Internet users will not want to do.
Beyond that, let us remember that Flash on iOS and Android has no longer been supported for a long time, therefore users no longer have the option to choose whether they want to see it or not, they do not see it directly. Let's thank Steve Job and company for this right decision.
