Does autocomplete cascade through the form?

[Korferer]

I read this article. About two thirds down it mentions that you can turn off autocomplete on the entire form if you put it in the form tag. The post is from 2011 though so I was wondering if it is still valid? Does anyone know if this is still correct?
 
So, can I use something like;
 

<form action="example.php" autocomplete="off">
First name:<input type="text" name="fname">
Last name: <input type="text" name="lname">
E-mail: <input type="email" name="email">
<input type="submit">
</form>

Or do I need something like;
 

<form action="example.php">
First name:<input type="text" name="fname" autocomplete="off">
Last name: <input type="text" name="lname" autocomplete="off">
E-mail: <input type="email" name="email" autocomplete="off">
<input type="submit">
</form>

To be sure...

Yes, that is still the case.
