I can't ask thousands of websites to stop using Flash, but I can contact the ones I visit, point out the problems with Flash security, and recommend they start converting to HTML5 video and audio.

If we all did that, we may hit thousands.

We might have to hit millions. You've been elected by popular vote to do the NY Times, followed by Social Security. :wink:

I don't read the NY Times, so some other visitor will have to contact them.

SSA has been contacted along with my Senators and Congressman.
