The fall isn’t over yet. I can see lots of organizations panicking in January 2021 when the flash plugin suddenly stops working. It dosen’t matter how much advance warning is given, there will always be someone caught out.
- tenebrisalietum 6y agoIt'll likely be their HR departments who use training websites that haven't changed their video delivery to work with anything other than IE, let alone not use Flash.
- Jtsummers 6y agoI was going to say the same. Ours finally work with Chrome and Firefox, not just IE (didn't even work with Edge previously). You could run the training, but it wouldn't record the results unless you used IE. But most of the training is still flash and for no good reason (the content could easily be presented with HTML and JS, only one or two of the trainings contain anything complicated enough to justify Flash, and most of it is in what could become video cutscenes between question prompts).
- Wowfunhappy 6y ago> I can see lots of organizations panicking in January 2021 when the flash plugin suddenly stops working. I'm still confused as to what this actually means. Is Flash going to remotely disable itself? Is Microsoft going to silently update Internet Explorer 11 to prevent flash from starting? Is Mozilla going to remove features from Firefox 78 ESR in a point release? Or is there just going to be an EMP explosion that corrupts every copy of the Flash plugin on every single hard drive in the world?
