Safari's requirement for user interaction to unmute videos ensures a better, more controlled user experience. It prevents unexpected sound, reduces data and battery usage, and addresses privacy concerns. This behavior is in line with autoplay policies enforced by other major browsers like Chrome, but Safari has stricter enforcement, especially on mobile.
