Should we have an audit to discourage use of plugins? E.g. we already list use of Flash as a common mistake in our "mobile friendly documentation"

Some types of videos or content are not playable on mobile devices, such as license-constrained media or experiences that require Flash or other players that are not broadly supported on mobile devices. Unplayable content, when featured on a page of any website can be very frustrating for users.

A "simple" way to ensure that this is the case:

  • check that the site's CSP policy sets object-src 'none'
  • check that iframes have a sandbox attribute

👍 I like this idea


We should think about adding a CSP gatherer, or a CSP audit --- not sure if this will sit ontop of the HTML gatherer or if we can be smarter about it.

Definitely like this idea. Looking into CSP stuff to see what we can do.

Okay, so @mikewest says in the longer term we may have https://w3c.github.io/webappsec-csp/api/ to play with, for now I'll roll with checking the headers. Which I think we should be able to do from the existing Network records gather.
