News videos

By Scott Keith on 22 January 2017

Hi Scott

So many times when I go to a news website and click on an article, a corresponding video will automatically start playing with a loud-voiced reporter. All I want to do is quietly read the article. Even changing my Chrome settings to stop Adobe Flash Player doesn’t always work. Do you or any of your readers know of an AdBlocker-type filter that can stop ALL videos from starting automatically? Shit is really annoying.

Thanks for any info you or anybody else can pass on!

P.S. Think there’s any chance Kurt Angle will do some sort of program (even if it’s not with him wrestling) with American Alpha or Rusev?

I feel your pain on the videos, but I don’t know any solutions either.

As for Angle, a backstage feud with Rusev would be amazeball, even if it only leads to him managing Enzo and Cass or something.
