Can it be turned off?
When browsers implement this "feature" can it be disabled in the browsers? Forcing the video/media with it to not play at all?
I sure hope so! If I can, it'll be the first thing disabled for the same reasons I don't run flash and haven't for several years now.
If it cannot be disabled then I'll have have to make my home browser like my stores EPOS system, unable to play any media whatsoever. But the store has it due to the store not having a BBC License... it also has the added benefit of confusing the hell out of the iplayer and youtube websites .. you have no html5? you have no flash? what is this witchcraft?!
(You'd need root to re-enable media playback, which the BBC hitmen do not have, they've tried but failed, about:config will simply show media settings as locked and disabled)
Okay, comment made, more coffee here I come!
