Firefox is the first browser to block and disable Flash Player by default

Adobe Flash Player has become a legacy of computing. Because of its continued failure in security and the high consumption of hardware resources, it has lost its presence on the Internet, especially when major browsers block and block it. Adobe will stop running the program in 2020, and Firefox will be the first browser to deactivate by default.

In 2017 Adobe said itself that by 2020 it will stop updating Flash Player, although some sites are still using it instead of using HTML5. However, a three-year period is sufficient to adapt to this change. Firefox wants to make progress on that date, said Jim Mathies, the company's security engineer.

Flash Player will be disabled by default from Firefox 69, and Google and Microsoft have already announced plans to eliminate this program in Chrome and Edge browsers, but Mozilla has advanced by being the first to be disabled by default. The notification will not be displayed for activation and display so far. Browser, where to activate it will be necessary to navigate to your browser settings.
By early 2020, Flash Player will be completely removed from Firefox versions. Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR) will support until the end of 2020. By 2015 Firefox will prevent Flash Playerv from loading in any position.
At the moment, while we receive this version of Firefox 69, which will arrive on September 3, Firefox will display an alert window for users who download content in Flash Player to alert them to the security problems involved. Google has similar plans to remove Flash Player on dates that match those of Firefox.
