Hi All,

I was doing some house cleaning and saw a flash player image opened in my disk 
utility. I wondered what the hell the flash player image was doing there, 
though I hadn’t opened a disk image for a year or so. Then I checked whether 
the updater was accessible. No go. There are several critical updates since I 
last installed it, not knowing where or which site incorporates flash. However, 
I’ve installed a plugin to deny flash any playing since it’s just not 
accessible.

Then I started turning wheels in my head and thought maybe a good way to get 
adobe to make their flash accessible, or at least their setup/update interface 
is to sue them for no accessibility, on the ground that screen reader users 
cannot access the critical updates through the alerts we are given when they 
are available. This may put computers at risk etc etc, but the point is not to 
make money (which i doubt in any perspective is possible on such a case) but to 
spotlight the fact that they have NOT made their flash component accessible, or 
any other as a matter of fact.

I know flash is in decline, but it still exists around. And I don’t want my 
system to be unsecure through an opening I have no control of, due to its 
inaccessibility.

Open to discussion

Best regards,
