Thanks. Here’s a screenshot. https://prnt.sc/gQSYgv6qqvbm I just get a white screen with the redirect in the URL bar.
This morning it’s working in FF & Chrome. It hasn’t worked for more than a week. Apparently, I didn’t close Brave last night, so the screenshot’s from that. Without doing a new search, I clicked on one of the links to a Russian site from last night, & Brave took me there. Maybe my fairy godmother? (I clear caches at least daily & clear out temp app data in Windows at least 2/wk. I leave the computer on overnight if I’m torrenting or seeding.)
I thought it probably had something to do with economic warfare. I wish it would end, but that’s a different matter. One of the best things about the internet has been free & open exchange with people from anywhere.
From the looks of it, I would guess it’s just the ad blocker got out of sync. Cuz you’re at an interstitial ad site so the ad blocker stopped that and probably blocked the redirect. So by restarting it it got back to the original position so it worked again.
could you give an example?

TYSM! If I could bother you with one more question, which part of the URL is the giveaway–clck? jsredir?
Yeah any of those redirection things in the URL are going to potentially get flagged by an ad blocker. Cuz they’re super duper super duper scummy
