Following in the footsteps of the other major browser, Firefox is taking steps to drastically reduce Adobe Flash usage in the near future.</p><p>
Mozilla recently announced that Firefox will “
block certain Flash content that is not essential to the user experience”—in other words, ads and any behind the scenes operations using Flash. Mozilla says that blocking non-essential Flash should reduce crashes and browser hang-ups by as much as 10 percent. The initial blocked content will be restricted to a specific list that Mozilla has put up on
Github, with plans to add more block targets to the list over time.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3098439/internet/firefox-will-start-blocking-flash-content-next-month.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
