Google Chrome To Block Redirect Links And Popups In New Update

Google Chrome will begin blocking some redirect links and difficult popups in an effort to crack down on significantly annoying internet advertisements excluding Google advertisements.

Google Chrome understands effectively that there are numerous issues their customers hate in regards to the web. Amongst them is the way in which an internet site takes you to a totally completely different web page and even open a brand new tab once clicked on. Beware, these hyperlinks may distribute malware and trackers from adware. Google has lastly determined to block redirect links from Chrome.

The update will roll out with Chrome 64 and Chrome 65 for desktop and Android. Chrome 64 will not automatically execute redirect hyperlinks which might be embedded in an iframe. The third-party redirects will likely be shown in an information bar on the web page, requiring the person to manually click on the advert.

This offers us the choice of viewing issues of our personal decisions slightly than being compelled.

Ryan Schoen, Product Manager at Googe talking about this update yesterday.

“Together, these protections will dramatically improve users’ web browsing experiences while still allowing them access to all that the web has to offer.”

Along with the brand new Chrome features, Google says it’s opening an ‘Abuse Experiences Report‘ console that can let website owners see when the newly-blocked advertisements have been served to their websites and take away an advert Google has declared abusive. The update shall be accessible to Chrome customers worldwide very soon.
