      Adblocker is blocking the websites from displaying anything, but how do I stop the tab from opening to start with. For instance, I am reading manga on certain websites and whenever I try to go to the next chapter it immediately opens a brand new tab with a weird website blocked by adblocker. This was not even an issue this morning and only started in the afternoon after I updated my browser. Any suggestions on how to force stop those redirections? I have added the website to the list of blocked redirects and it does not work.

        @thereflexivegamer Kinda difficult to avoid such pages to be opened. What triggers them is the fact that you clicked on a link, how the page would know that you don't want to open that link?

        I guess the best way to preventing such thing from happening would be by not using sites that resort to that kind of subterfuge.

          Sometimes - if you don't mind some images not displaying - you can turn off javascript and it will stop doing that.
