Yes.
It's extremely awkward to load your page and be blasted by auto-play music. I get that you want to set the mood! But do you really want to set the mood for everyone at Starbucks, or the office, or the library? Thanks for reading. Life is good

Please don't obscure the point of my suggestion with distractions.

And I frequently need to use public WiFi for any variety of reasons. When I do, I learned two very important best practices:
1. Always use VPN to access the internet. This will bypass any blocks on content access.
2. Always find a seat with your back to the wall. And if possible use a privacy screen on your laptop monitor. This prevents shoulder surfing.
And now I will need to add a third:
3. Always leave your speakers off, or your headset on.
But after you made yourself feel good by calling BS (unsuccessfully), thank you for agreeing with my main point.

Does it really matter where I, or anyone else, am/is when loading a webpage leads to auto-play music?
The point - THE ONLY POINT - was to suggest to those providers who do this that they might rethink it.
Are those of you who spent time picking apart my OP, parsing every word for some hint of controversy or conflict really that bored with your life? Have you considered an alternative, like getting laid? (There are resources for that if you are interested... I'll be happy to send you the URL for TER by DM if you send me a request.)
Really, people, I am not that interesting.
