Firefox will soon turn Flash off by default

In 2017, Firefox will require click-to-activate approval from users before a website activates the Flash plugin.

Is it just me or has Firefox been doing this for a while now?

No, it is you and FF.

Seriously, though - yes. AFAIK they have been doing it for a while. Seems like the difference is that if you install the Flash plugin, it still requires you to click in the player/frame/box before it will load.
