There’s a really interesting debate to be had about Adobe Flash Player. The end of life date is already set, the whole thing (including all security updates) is soon stopping.. but users are going to keep installing it as some sites still use it.
I'm sure I'm not a representative example of how people browse the web, but I'm curious which popular sites use Flash these days. I haven't had it on my systems for probably a couple of years, and I can't recall coming across a site that needed it.
The Chrome telemetry show 8% of users encounter Flash, so the problem for corporates is you can’t remove something near 10% of your workforce use. There’s also lots of bespoke/niche apps, IT systems and even some InfoSec systems which use it.
Yeah, I had forgotten about that. What an abomination that is. I have a VM with flash for VSphere administration.
