[dba-Tech] av autoplay in crhome & firefox

[Peter Brawley]

I switched from FireFox to Chrome years ago 'cuz it was faster and less 
bug-infested than FireFox, especially bookmark processing for which FF 
used SqlLite, ugly slow. I've kept using it 'cuz of the ease with which 
Chrome keeps bookmarks synchronised across multiple machines.

But on Chrome, advert autoplay is increasingly common and intrusive, and 
as with much else in googleworld, complaints have no effect. They're 
reworking their autoplay policy all right---to make it worse ...

Anyone FF users out there who can confirm that advert autoplay is less 
intrusive in FF?
