JavaScript is not much better. With extremely few exceptions and thousands of various exploits to bypass browser protections/sandboxing, not to mention the horrible privacy violations it enables (well being cookies), I personally consider JS just as bad. Sure it’s an open standard where Flash wasn’t, but beyond that it offers very little beyond slick interfaces that hog CPU and a plethora of ways to trick users into unknowingly violating their privacy or at worst, literally running active exploit code. Yeah, Flash has tons of security problems for sure and I’m glad it’s dead, but JS fanboys live in a glass house, so throwing stones is ill-advised.
