Google has added a feature to its Google Chrome Web browser that the company promises will reduce the annoyance of auto-play videos, but there are exceptions that may make it less useful.

“if you’ve ever interacted with a sieve before” makes this feature pretty much useless. I never want auto-play videos or sound, not on any site. I don’t care if it’s my site.
