I wanted to read a particular article in the Independent (which turned out to be nonsense), so I went to their site. It needs Flash. My Flash was 25.0.0.148, and that's been found to be insecure, so Firefox advises me not to use it. Sigh. So I went to the Adobe site and upgraded my Flash to 25.0.0.173.
Sigh.
Why are people still using Flash?
Mainly because the different warring factions have made the HTML5 replacements a PITA for too long arguing over stupid details! There are also simple things like video capture where HTML5 is still not ready for mainstream use... and this is 2017!
