How do I change my settings to prevent videos from downloading or playing automatically? I have 30 GB of monthly data that gets used up every month, and I noticed that videos start downloading and playing all by themselves. My internet provider (Verizon) tells me it's my fault, so I try to limit what I do online. I went from using less than 5 GB per month to using 30 GB and I have cut way back on my Internet usage. I am trying to turn off everything that runs automatically. I normally watch maybe 1 hr of video per month on average...usually in 1-5 minute snippets. I have stopped playing games online (which I used to do nightly for hours and hours.) I have turned off almost all auto-updates. I don't do a lot of emailing anymore. I read some news headlines and check in on Facebook, but don't participate much. Am I forgetting other data sources? I can't afford to increase my monthly data anymore. If I can't find what is using all of my data, I may have to stop using the Internet for everything except emails.
