Google Chrome will now mute auto-playing videos

Google Chrome will now mute auto-playing videos

This is awesome, I don’t personally use Google Chrome but I can imagine this being a huge pain when those pesky auto-playing videos that are littered all over the internet start blurting out loud music or something when you visit a website.

But now in Chrome, the browser will start blocking the sound that comes from adverts or autoplaying videos by default and even if the site is still playing some kind of sound, you can then block the websites access and privileges.
