Mozilla is backing off its support for Adobe's Flash technology in its Firefox browser, the latest slash in Flash's death by a thousand cuts.
Instead of dropping Flash right away, the open source development organisation will reduce its support for Flash in stages. Sometime next year, Mozilla plans to have Firefox block Flash videos and games by default, requiring users who want to view or play them to click on them to activate them.
