Stop Autoplay Videos on Facebook, Insta, Twitter, YouTube

Videos have now become an essential and comprehensive part of the Internet. On the social networks, almost every one is sharing videos on their wall. No doubt, we love watching videos. But while browsing Instagram, Facebook, YouTube or Twitter, the autoplay videos sometimes become inconvenient. Especially when you are browsing in a public place, in a class, or in your office.
