You don't decide what a company can or can't do if you're not paying for the privilege of using their products.

Functionally, Chrome is "paid for" by userbase. Google has plenty of signal to figure out if this change is going to turn people off from using it.

Looks like they also have signal to suggest it's a gamble worth taking.

Are you going to stop using Chrome?

Personally? No. I don't find Flash apps to be useful these days; they're more often a problem than a solution when I encounter them.

I rest my case.

Chrome isn't googles product. The people using their services are. Didn't you get the memo?
