> (even if they mistakenly believe gnash is the same as flash) Most people don't know there are other implementations of flash other than the official proprietary plugin by Adobe. This includes website developers. Flash is usually detected by websites by sniffing installed plugins names, their descriptions or the attributes of the plugin pointed by the mime-type for flash objects - application/x-shockwave-flash. For Gnash to transparently replace flash it *MUST* use strings provided by the proprietary plugin. Of course, Gnash adds additional strings about itself where possible - after the expected flash string in the description of the plugin. This string is usually not checked by flash detection software. If a site checks for installed flash plugin, it will detect Gnash as just "Shockwave Flash". The fix is to search for Gnash in the description of the plugin. With that said, it is clear (for me) that the people behind Occupy Flash didn't make a mistake, but are simply unaware that Gnash exists. There is a high probability that they use existing flash detection JavaScript library that is also unaware of Gnash. I think there is no flash detection JavaScript library that checks for Gnash.
