I have a metered connection, and have to be careful about my monthly internet usage. Some guides have streamed embedded in them, but they auto open, and this is affecting my data cap. Is it possible for these to be closed until clicked? Or an option to be checked somewhere? There is nothing that can be done, and frankly it is unacceptable.
Thank you Jovy for this bomb *** sig!

Metered internet. That's what is truly unacceptable.

I sympathise with having capped connections because it does suck, but it's really easy to block things that eat data.

You can block pop up streams within like 30 seconds so they'll never be a problem again, and if you have a capped connection then you should 100% learn how to quickly and easily remove sources that eat data. Changing the way websites work because it's a pain for you isn't exactly fair to anyone else, especially when the fix is easy to do yourself

I can show you how if you want
