WARNING TO ADOBE FLASH USERS IN CHINA

For Adobe Flash (plugin/standalone player) users, if you need taking your computer to China(PRC), you will be asked to install a Chinese customized version of Flash Player(by detecting with China IP when you browse internet), which has a "Flash Helper Service" installed, and that service is done by Chinese company for collecting user data to Chinese Government/Police.

So if you need to bring your computer to China(PRC), it is better to keep it in version 29. (PepperFlash from Google Chrome official builds are also affected.)

For Flash plugin comes from Windows Update (for IE/Edge use) is not affected.

This is good information. Additionally, I must point out that Chinese users will not be able to download localized versions of the Flash Player in China, according to a staff moderator on the Adobe Community forum:

Offline installer (May 24, 2018)

However, users can access the final English version of the Flash Player version 29 (29.0.0.171) you cited, from my FTP here:

http://sdfox7.com/xp/sp3/EOL/flash_sse_29.0.0.171/

http://sdfox7.com/xp/sp3/EOL/flash_sse_29.0.0.171/install_flash_player.exe (Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome ≤ 44)
http://sdfox7.com/xp/sp3/EOL/flash_sse_29.0.0.171/install_flash_player_ax.exe (Internet Explorer)
http://sdfox7.com/xp/sp3/EOL/flash_sse_29.0.0.171/install_flash_player_ppapi.exe (Google Chrome)

and people found a way to use international version of flash installer (30.0.0.134) by null-routing geo2.adobe.com

127.0.0.1 geo2.adobe.com
::1 geo2.adobe.com

and also deleting flash settings data file in: %APPDATA%\Macromedia\Flash Player\macromedia.com\support\flashplayer\sys\settings.sol
