YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

I checked two more computers after reading your reply (first time setups) and they all have autoplay off, so I remain skeptical of what you stated.
There are so many trolls and misinformation floating around.
As far as I have seen with those "fresh" installs, your information is not matching the reality here, so I'm moving on to other sources.
it could also be regional differences, since your checks are localized to your area, and OP's his area. lots of software updates have incremental regional rollouts so i'm making a guess that that's what's happening, based on responses to this post.
don't automatically assume someone is "farming for points" when they post about something that doesn't immediately apply to you. it may apply to you in the future.
Thank you, this is the sort of thing I was trying to point out. And I love how he ignored all my other points just to focus on this one ISO or installer he's using over and over again to "prove" that he's right.
Funny part is, I never said it was the default in the original post anyway. The whole point is, if it's turned on, you may want to turn it off.
Hello Boozilla, I had a couple weeks to reflect and I realize I overreacted . Sorry about that. Cheers to you.
This was used as an attack vector more than 15 years ago,I can't believe they re enabled it honestly. There was a virus on my school's pcs which installed itself on the USB keys and people just went home and spread it everywhere without clicking on anything thanks to autoplay. Also "asked to chatgpt" lmao.
