Duh. Facebook starts running the videos as soon as you open the Facebook page. If you open a video and watch it, it'll start a new one in 3-4 seconds. Unless they remove these practices, it is not clear how much of that 20 minutes is due to their aggressive behavior.
I believe Watch is their separate page for video, and not the autoplay videos that show up as you scroll down your feed. It'd seem pretty surprising that consumers would repeatedly click on that page and get tricked into watching a significant amount of content.
If you try to click (because by default it should be "pause") the video the pause it, it'll upsize it and open Facebook watch. Just another trick to annoy you.
