Google Chrome will begin blocking auto-reproducing high-profile videos

By: Anton Melnik | 22.03.2018, 23:31

In the new version of Google Chrome 66 autoplaying annoying videos will be almost completely blocked. In the January update, you could already turn off the sound on the sites by right-clicking.

Will all videos be blocked?

Limit not all pages, but in order to play the video, the site must meet a large number of criteria. There will be so many demands that the sudden loud noises to users hardly threaten.

Autoplay can also be turned back on by pressing or any other interaction with the multimedia content of the site. The updated Chrome 66 should be released next month.
