I think voluntarily clicking on a video on Youtube or watching a Netflix
video and enjoying the benefit of the audio track without further ado is
not what is meant by blocking websites from *automatically* playing
sound, where you're dealing with the notion of non-intentionality on the
part of the user (in the case of, let's say, unwanted advertisements
and the like).
