Firefox now blocks auto playing audio and video

Who, websites? That doesn't stop script blockers, and script blockers are not ad blockers exclusively, but they do block the elements that load ads. Many people are going to leave if they stop script blockers, I have all of my friends using them to stop those forceful popups that load 8 pages and redirect you 15 times off each one that force you to download .exe files from each one of those. I've directed many many people to use chrome for script stoppers to stop that shit, no more fullsizing your browser window to stop fake FBI websites from pretending they've locked my computer? Fuck that, I'll just use an older version of chrome. My perfect browsing service and 15 extensions will not be stopped. Matter of fact, guess I'll just go ahead and disable the auto update feature now that I'm thinking about it.
