Google has announced that from mid-April its Chrome web browser will block autoplaying videos with sound. Google intended to deliver it in Chrome 64 in January, but it has now decided the block on autoplay video will come with Chrome 66, which is scheduled for stable release in mid-April. The move is part of a new set of rules for the popular video streaming service, which was launched in 2009. Autoplay will be allowed if the video is muted, has no audio or if the user has already clicked on the site.
