A great way to convince you you've always been wrong:

Step 1: Gain browser monopoly

Step 2: Generate fake security scare

Step 3: Gaslight everyone that only way to mitigate is to get rid of it completely like Flash.

Step 3a (corollary): There isn't anyone available that can fix the bugs because we spent all resources on UI/UX experimentation

html5 canvas and javascript advancements made flash obsolete, reminder that you used to be able to run java in the browser!
