Description of the issue:

I goto youtube.com, then click on site settings and try to block autoplay.
The option is there, and lets me select ‘block’, but then it toggles immediately back to ‘autoplay’,

Seriously, really? I have sessions saved, when I launch, I don’t want it blasting youtube videos and getting into autoplay mode sucking bandwidth, I’m on a limited plan.

Please fix this friggen fools. You are aware of this if you use brave at all.

Did Google pay you to reduce the security of the Brave browser corrupt poop heads.

@Dgenies,
Sure, we’ll look into the issue. But next time you see someone with this type of disposition, don’t bother responding and ping me personally instead. @devlocalca’s post was incredibly insulting and rude.

Can you imagine going up to someone in person, yelling at them – calling them fools, telling them they suck, and (my favorite) that they’re poop heads – and then ultimately requesting something from that friend? Is that how we treat people?

:point_up:
You didn’t have to write that. Nobody made you write your post – definitely nobody here. I’m going to close this thread due to the general negative tone that was set – @devlocalca, if you’d like this or any other issue looked at or addressed, please post a new topic, try adhering a bit closer to the code of conduct this time and I’d be happy to assist you.
