          Sorry but if you don’t like autoplay, it’s your responsibility to disable that on your device. Here’s how to do it in firefox:

          1. Open Firefox.

          2. Go to Settings:

            • Click the menu button (three horizontal lines in the top-right).
            • Select Settings (or Preferences on macOS/Linux).
          3. In the left sidebar, select Privacy & Security.

          4. Scroll down to the Permissions section.

          5. Next to Autoplay, click Settings.

          6. Change the dropdown at the top to Block Audio and Video.

          7. Click Save Changes.

      Block all JavaScript. I know, it’s annoying to manually allow-list scripts but the alternative is more annoying.

      My top tools are NoScript for Firefox mobile, uMatrix for Firefox desktop.
