G.O.
In any case, what does this mean for being able to view videos on the web in the future using open source programs?
Flash is being phased out by html 5 video (even Abode is throwing in the towel) and no longer installed on a lot of platforms. I am not sorry to see it go- it is a resource hungry and insecure piece of crap.
Open source is the only option that we have that maintains our freedom. Is anyone trying to develop an open-source clone of flash so that the internet will remain open?
