Conrad Knauer Is it advisable to download a random .deb file?

I know there are scripts that download flash, and install it. Also at
least the user can read the script, and see what it is doing,however. With
a prepackage deb that some unknown user made there is the potential for
other issues is there not?

Wouldn't it be best to advise those user who want or need flash to install
it using the .tar.gz method outlined on the adobe website?
