True but it always has been *insecure*, that's not the
reason they are
dropping it.
They are no longer supporting all the different Android
mobile devices after ICS IIRC. But you can be grandfathered
in of a previous
version.
For instance I still have it on my Samsung Note which now
has
ICS...

Interesting:
Adobe Flash Player
returns to Android store in
UK
"Adobe has put a disclaimer on the Google
Play page through
which the Player can be downloaded on to an Android device
warning that the software was no longer being updated.
The warning
said the Flash Player was only certified as
working with Android version
4.0.x.
This means it will not work with the latest version of the
mobile operating system version 4.1 which is also known as
Jelly
Bean."
The plug-in is only available via Google Play UK and would
be
removed again "soon", said Adobe.
"Flash Player continues to be
available on Google Play for
users in the UK for a short while due to requests
from
strategic partners," said a spokesperson for Adobe.
The BBC was
one of the strategic partners that asked Adobe
to delay removal. Flash is the
technology underpinning the
BBC's iPlayer application.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Just checked my supported Samsung Note with ICS...
Official Flash update yesterday.
Now 11.1.115.20 updated 8-Oct-2012.
So it as secure as it ever was ;-)
So not very... but I use it on my Linux boxes or Android
so... not too bad.
