As someone who dealt professionally with security issues from about 2000 onwards, many involving Flash 0-days, I have about as much fond remembrance of Flash as I do for polio or smallpox. I regard it as an infectious scourge that humanity has finally largely eradicated, and we're healthier for it.

As someone who used browsers in 2000 I have the same fond remembrance of JavaScript. Yet for some reason it still spreads like aids instead of following flash on its way out.

Apples to oranges. Javascript is an open-standard language, not a closed black box runtime like Flash.

Ah, so now it is ok to have possible exploits or pages that are just a big canvas, 'cause open standards. /s
