Google Releases Roll-out plan for HTML5 in Chrome 56

This major changes disables Adobe Flash Player unless the user indicates that they want Flash content on a specific site by site basis, and eventually all websites will require the user’s permission to run Flash. To ensure a smooth transition, not all users and sites will be affected immediately. HTML5 by Default and the associated user prompts will be introduced gradually as follows. The feature will be rolled out to users over a few months. HTML5 by Default will be enabled for 1% of users of Chrome 55 Stable in the next few days. The feature is also enabled for 50% of Chrome 56 beta users. With Chrome 56 stable in February, we plan to enable it for all users. Read the full story here.
