Didn't have to. A day or so ago, Google updated Chrome, and along
with it Pepper Flash to 12.0.0.41. So, now Chrome works with the
"problem" sites. Iceweasel, however, still doesn't, and never will,
since its version of Flash will never to later than 11.2, Adobe's final
release for Linux.

There just aren't any later versions being supplied by Adobe for Linux.
Adobe still continues development of Flash for Windows and OSX, however.
