Good news - they shit their pants at the obvious immediate backlash, and announced it's just not getting updates.

I'd suggest it's a door-in-the-face technique to make a second announcement more palatable through psychological priming... but I mean, they could just not update it, and nobody would fucking notice. Oh is Flash an insecure buggy piece of shit? Gee, it must be every day of the last thirty years.
