It is known to all that Adobe Flash Player has quite a few security holes and it has been the cause of security problems in all kinds of devices, for example the other day found to be vulnerable to 0 day attacks and that for this and more reasons it seems that companies are increasingly in favor of looking for other alternatives to the Flash Player.
One of them is the American company System 76, which is dedicated to selling computers with Ubuntu preinstalled, this company you have decided to stop using Flash Player on your computers and as a result it sells those Ubuntu computers completely without the Adobe plugin.
The company explains that its The main reason to do without the famous Adobe plugin is security, they think that it is a plugin full of vulnerabilities and especially after the attacks suffered last week by the Hacking Team group and that for these reasons they are recommending other computer equipment distributors to dispense with the operating system.
Another reason why the company explains its decision to remove Adobe Flash Player is that it is becoming less and less usefulMobile phones that have Android and iOS installed work perfectly without having Flash Player, being able to play games and watch videos without the need for it. The same is happening on computers since sites like YouTube can already work without having Flash pre-installed.
In addition to the System 76 company, other companies are recommending that you stop using the famous Plugin, between them Facebook via your security director Alex Stamos or a website called Occupied Flash in which they include a small manifest that encourages users to uninstall the plugin as they say it is obsolete.
Will it be the end of Adobe Flash Player ?, in my opinion Adobe would have to put a lot of batteries and correct many vulnerabilities of your plugin, they should also make it lighter since in my opinion on less powerful computers it is a plugin that fails a lot, often leaving the computer freezing for a few seconds while loading a web page. In short, the death of Flash Player could be very close.
Flash player, in my opinion it should not die so soon there are still many things that depend on it, and they are not bad as it seems but that if it has many bugs.
Let Flash player die! There are already better alternatives.
