“Adobe: Our thoughts on open markets”
If the web fragments into closed systems, if companies put content and applications behind walls, some indeed may thrive — but their success will come at the expense of the very creativity and innovation that has made the Internet a revolutionary force.
And that’s their defense of Flash?
All hail the Fox News strategy: say the exact opposite of the truth, and expect that everybody will swallow it without questioning, and that Adobe will win by virtue of being the last to speak up. But do they expect this to work on their customer base — when half of that base is composed of Mac users who have been cursing the OS X Flash plugin for years?
(Not that there aren’t many Flash fans taking Adobe’s side of the argument; it’s just that this bullshit is not going to convince anybody in their favor, and can only do the opposite by sheer ridiculousness.)
