Adobe should just rename Flash to Flashsploit. Glad I decided to adopt a "screw Flash" policy over a year ago and flushed it. If I stumble upon a site that requires it to be usable, I simply go elsewhere.

Flash has gotten a bit better over the years, went from spot #4 (2016) to #9 (2018) but it's still really bad given that it's not even an OS or anything with a large surface area of attack.

I haven't used Flash for years until recently, I was forced to install it again. Guess whose fault that was? Cisco Network Academy. Their assessments require it.
