Is there any way to stop videos from automatically playing?

I have limited data and really don't want to watch most of the videos out there. Is there a way to stop them from automatically playing in Safari?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

Yes, any websites that are annoying you, you can right click (Control key + Left click) on the SmartSearch address bar. A context menu will pop up, choose Settings For This Website...


Another menu will pop up with several different features. About half way down is a setting for Auto Play: --set it to Never
