Most news pages and many other pages pop this up. I never want it and block all automatic intrusive disturbing visual and audio. But recently, they override my settings. (good example is https://www.usatoday.com/)

I have had media.autoplay set to false for years I have had flash blocked for years, too.

Thanks for any ideas!
