How is this any different from javascript in HTML5?

The bad thing about flash is they also had network access without SOP... oh wait websockets does that. They also had FS access... which HTML5 has too now. Well the sandbox had some CVEs occasionally but then again, all software does.

I guess the worst thing was that it meant you had to install a closed source package from a large SV company... like most people do with Chrome.
