Banish Flash Cookies
I honestly can’t think of a good reason to allow Flash cookies space on your computer.1
To banish them forever, under Linux:
rm -r ~/.macromedia ~/.adobe ln -s /dev/null ~/.adobe ln -s /dev/null ~/.macromedia

ytmp
ytmp is a daemon that runs in the background; when you browse to a YouTube or Vimeo video page, it passes the URL to youtube-dl, and thence to your favourite video-playing application.
So, whatever browser you’re using—even if it’s text-only—you get to watch web video, without Flash. Clever stuff.
BashFlash
BashFlash lets you stop the Flash plug-in dead in its tracks, letting your new-fangled Mac cool down, use less power, and give you more time to do whatever it is you do.
