Shockwave !== Flash. Confusing, yes, as Flash was sometimes labeled as Shockwave Flash.

  The article says they're also discontinuing normal Adobe Flash. In addition, everything I said applies to Shockwave as well, albeit to a lesser extent. (Also, what the heck is with that confusing name? It made troubleshooting a Shockwave issue quite annoying a couple years back, because all my searches for "Shockwave" turned up results related to "Shockwave Flash".)

    The article literally says that Flash will not be discontinued. >Adobe continues to offer a rich set of content creation tools through Creative Cloud, including Adobe Animate CC for authoring interactive content for multiple platforms, such HTML5 Canvas, WebGL, Flash/Adobe AIR and others.

      I'm not sure why they mentioned Flash in that press release. I suppose Adobe technically "continues to offer it" as of right now. Scroll down a little further. There's a subhead titled "Adobe Flash marked for retirement as well"
