What could it possibly send? The flash itself has no outside access and the plugin by Adobe is unlikely to make a market booboo as large as to collect and send info to home.

I agree with gerbick here. Security issue it's not. Stevie is just being a behind like we all know he can be, making a move like this knowing publicity is going to be massive for Apple. He's probably already sniffing HTML5 or some other alternate technology he'll move to (or launch one) and is using the opposite of quietly leaving to generate some buzz.

I don't buy that an Apple crashes mostly because of Flash. That's insane. If Flash can crash your platform, your platform is bad, mmkay?
