How to stop videos from loading on metered connection?

I'm currently using nightly and, while videos with audio are muted by media.autoplay.ask-permission, and further they are paused if you also set allow-muted to false, the problem is that they still load.
On a metered [or slow] connection, this is a big problem.
Viewing a news article on ABC [for example] pre-loads the entire video in the background.
To make matters worse; Even after the entire video has been cached, a steady stream of 200KB/s is still continually streamed from the CDN.
Example link: https://abcnews.go.com/US/noreaster-season-east-coast/story?id=58738494
If you monitor bandwidth with Firefox's network monitor, or a 3rd party tool [like jnettop for Linux], you'll see that the page continues to load video data.
Not only would I expect it to not load any if playback is disabled, but it certainly shouldn't continue to load data, perpetually, after the entire video has been buffered.

I am a web application developer. My application is using open authentication. As part of the login process the application stores information in the session storage of the browser. Then the user is redirected to a login page. When, after a successful login, the user is redirected back, the information in the session storage is gone. The same problem when I use local storage.
This problem only occurs with the setting: Never remember history.
Is this a bug or a feature?
Other browsers do not have this behavior.
gah! your tab has crashed on reddit

I can't use the print button (on adress line or in pdf viewer) as the "shrink to fit size" always revert to 30%. I if change it and print from the print preview it still goes back to 30% next time. Have even tried deleting all "print." and "print_" setting from the "prefs.js" file. Still no change. Where is the default "shrink to fit" size store so I can change it manually?

This problem started with the last update (I think). I am currently running version 64.0b5 (64-bit). I try to connect to www.foxnews.comand I get a timeout. The display is:
Secure Connection Failed The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified. Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.
Down at the bottom of the page it says "Performing a TLS handshake to www.foxnews.com" and it never connects.

I have a number of installed extensions but can't find a way to see what permissions I granted them on install.
Also, if I update them and their requested permission changed, do I get notified? It's not very clear.
(I don't remember what they requested at the time of install, and my understanding of what those permissions mean has changed drastically since then.)

I want vertical tabs on the right and vertical bookmarks on the left ALL THE TIME. LEFT and RIGHT are important here, and should not be disregarded. It was perfect back in firefox 4x, but then something happened. I have something like 700 bookmarks, and it takes forever for them to load from the 'bookmarks' button. I export them to html, which file I use as a home page, but the vertical list on the left is better.

I often have green arrow on firefox hamburger menu, with "download fresh copy of firefox" as first option. And every time I launch FF I get notification to update.
But this is nonsense in linux - I can't update that way and, what is more important, I can update only when new version drops in my distro repos by maintainers. Obviously, there must be the way to disable at least notifications (which are annoying cause of nonsense) - in most linux distributions FF is updated by pkg managers.
I did not find solution in google - looks like it was earlier but now it isn't working anymore. Any help?
