We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all
reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago
and there have been many changes in Ubuntu and Chromium since that time.
This bug report is over five years old and the contents of the URL in
the description have undoubtedly changed as today I see a message (when
using Google Chrome) which includes the text:
We have retired Flash.
Support for Flash ended on December 31, 2020.
Chromium, now a snap, give me an "Access denied" error.
I'm closing this bug report as it is no longer valid.

Title:
Chromium doesn't follow flash deprecation guidelines
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Chrome has set the global policy for flash to "ask first" for a while.
Yet, chromium will always play flash content without user consent if
the adobe-flashplugin package is installed on the system.
Test: Visit http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/about/ on chrome and
chromium. Per default policy, chrome will ask for user consent.
Chromium will not.
Expected Behaviour: Chromium should also ask the user first.
Version: Chromium 59.0.3071.109 Built on Ubuntu , running on Ubuntu
16.04
