What's your best extension to stop videos from autoplaying on sites like USAToday and such?

Hi,

you might use ClickToFlash.

See its preferences to prevent the videos from autoplaying or even from starting downloading automatically.

I second this. I use clicktoplugin (which is by the same developer and is basically clicktoflash but for all plugins). Works great

Second ClickToPlugin. Adguard AdBlocker to stop most unwanted things from showing up and running.
