Adobe Flash support official ends this January 12, pushes for uninstallation

More than three years ago, Adobe officially announced that in 2020, Flash will not be receiving any support and updates. Now, this came true.

Goodbye, Adobe Flash Player

No more Flash content starting January 12

Starting January 12, 2021, any Adobe Flash Player content will be blocked by the company. Since the first announcement was made in 2017, most people will not be affected by the discontinuation of the Adobe Flash Player. In fact, Apple users with iPhones and iPads never even used Flash Player in the first place. Steve Jobs found the software unreliable and a battery hog.

Adobe Flash Player has also been suffering from several vulnerabilities that put PCs and Macs at risk from hackers and other online threats. Companies such as Microsoft and Apple are constantly putting resources to patch these vulnerabilities leading to them steering away from Flash.

Adobe encourages users to uninstall Adobe Flash Player from their systems to avoid any security risks.
