I would deal argue that the most annoying thing about publishers online is this recent tendency of auto-playing videos--and now it seems to be always with sound! Is there a Chrome plugin that deals with this?(It's not always ads so I am excluding AdBlock here.)<p>And I read recently Facebook will be 'sound on' going forward for autoplay so I'd love to hear your suggestions.<p>Thanks!
I mostly deal with it by yelling, screaming, cursing, throwing things, and threatening (in a non-specific and non-literal way) to "kill the motherfucker that made this site".<p>And then I think about installing an ad-blocker for 2 or 3 minutes, but usually by then I've calmed down and I just go on with whatever it was I was doing to begin with. Lather, rinse, repeat.
