I know, but it is still possible to block... ie, flash 10.1 mobile itself has unique IDs itself, so if Hulu wanted they could set the site up so that it blocks 10.1 mobile based on that... this is the only way I, or any developer, can think they would be able to block all content from being viewed with flash 10.1 mobile, as they claim they will be doing.
