    Ohhhhhh, you meant to say media player controls not media. This actually makes sense, and is valid if you’re the type of person who never looks at settings and expects Microsoft any corporate software engineer ever to take your privacy to heart.

    It’s also how your phone (regardless of make) and the other major OS vendor both work. It’s also how the bluetooth in your car works. You dont have to like it but if you refuse to look at device settings you’re gonna get boned at some point.

    Blame Firefox for, 15 years after release, finally integrating with the system-wide media API.

      No, I’m going to blame Windows. My phone is in my pocket or face down on my desk when it’s locked so whatever i’m listening to isn’t visible I can’t very well do this with a monitor. There’s exactly zero reason for this functionality to exist on a desktop especially if they’re not even going to give you an option to turn it off. There’s no setting in windows for this. I’ve looked. There no setting to turn this off without doing it through the media control setting in firefox which takes your keyboard media controls down with it. That’s not a fix.
