Firefox 69 Will Disable Adobe Flash Plugin by Default

Mozilla will take the next major step in disabling support for the Adobe Flash plugin later this year when it releases Firefox 69. From a report: Firefox 69 will be Mozilla's third last step to completely dropping support for the historically buggy plugin, which will reach end of life on December 31, 2020. Flash is the last remaining NPAPI plugin that Firefox supports.

Firefox 69 stable will be released in early September, according to Mozilla's release calendar.
