Flash ended up getting blocked/banned by all browsers because it turned into a giant gaping security hole.

It looks like we-the-users need to be blocking any and every one of these parasites.

I have a feeling they may have pushed for that more because it was controlled by a third party, and not the browser developers themselves.
