Why does Comcast demand that you have the adobe flash player when it is vulnerable to hacking?

a single feature of flash is used to verify the security of the path and to check for unauthorized other connections (like HDMI from a phone/tablet).  you can use Chrome that has built in flash that is provided by google and is sandboxed so can not affect other running programs/memory.
