Chrome allows users to mute the website permanently
Farewell, spontaneous videos.
This week, Google released a new version of Chrome, which has many exciting new features. Best to mention the ability to mute the video automatically.
There are a lot of websites that are annoying users because they automatically play videos when users scroll down the page. Instead of closing the tab or muting (or swearing because of anger), you can now mute the whole site by right clicking on the page, selecting Mute Site. This feature instead of the mute feature 'Mute Tab' only works temporarily.
Turn off the website completely to avoid unpleasant sounds
Google also supports HDR on Chrome 64 for Windows, requires the computer to update Fall Creators Update, has HDR screen and compatible graphics card.
The latest version of Chrome also helps protect Windows and Mac users from Meltdown and Specter security vulnerabilities. Following other browsers, Google also disables the SharedArrayBuffer feature to minimize the impact if attacked.
