autoplay problem

Hi. I'm using Firefox for Android version 67.0.3. I have autoplay blocked in the browser settings. Despite this, when I access almost any article from independent.co.uk, there is a video autoplaying. Any idea? What should I do to stop this?

Hi

So that I can look into this further, do you have an web site address where this happens so that I can replicate the issue here?

Hi

I have looked at both an article with a video and one without (in case the video is an advert) and am not having any autoplaying content. Have you an example of an article where this is happening?

For exemple, at the following address, by the time the page fully loads, there is a video autoplaying.
