That was my reaction as well; the author obviously doesn't realize Flash helps photographers protect their work from Google and the right-clickers, which a lot of them actually do care about. I was half-expecting a complaint about View Source, which would've made sense; I don't see what the gripe is here other than a word of warning to fellow photogs about Flash probably not working on the mobile phones of those who might hire them, and a general appeal to the use of Web standards. Unless I'm missing something. As an aside, though, when I read this, I cringed: "I know [Flash disappearing] is fairly unlikely, but even Adobe has pretty much dropped support for Flash in favor of HTML5." Er, come again? Adobe is sunsetting Flash for mobile browsers. All other incarnations of Flash are still very much on the roadmap. It just kills me to see how confused so many people seem to be about Flash, what it's good for, what it's not so good for, and what Adobe's future plans are for it. Certainly Adobe is to blame for a lot of this, but the "Flash vs. HTML5" theme of 2011 certainly didn't help clarify how different the two really are.
