This Userscript stops YouTube From Auto-Playing Videos

This script simply toggles the 'Auto-Play' button to 'OFF' automatically.

After:

Playlists will still Auto-Play when using this script.

Playlists are obviously content where Auto-Play makes total sense: The script will not stop Auto-Play when you're watching videos from a playlist.
