One of the many reasons I switched off Chrome in the past couple of years has been the disabling of options to turn off autoplay video. They literally removed the option, because it's part of their ad business model. Of course, attention means impressions means billable ad dollars.
However, my Firefox auto-updated to version 63.01 and now not only is autoplay turned ON again, but searching for 'autoplay' in options shows nothing. Also, a document from the Mozilla foundation about turning it off is outdated (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/block-autoplay) shows options that this new Firefox does NOT have.
Dear HN Community: how do I rid myself of this scourge? I find it egregious that video should autoplay in any capacity at any point anywhere in this ad-filled world, much less on MY computer equipment.
Thanks!
