About Redirect Prevent

It cannot block server-side (backend) redirects that occur at the HTTP level (e.g., status codes 301, 302, 307). Features • Automatic detection of redirection attempts • Confirmation prompt before any redirection • Simple and intuitive interface • No configuration required • Works on all websites Installation From Chrome Web Store (Recommended) 1.
