Chrome, block for the redirects of the pages with the next versions

Google is planning three new updates in the user experience of its web browser, Chrome, in order to eliminate different types of annoyances. Remove the redirects on the page, reduce the banners that appear on the page while the desired contents are opened in another tab, block the overlays that are recalled through the banners on the page.

The worst annoyance is just the first, that is when you click on a link, and you are dragged to an unwanted and unsolicited advertising banner: ” We have discovered that this type of redirect often happens through third-party content integrated into the page, and the author of the same does not want the redirect to happen, ” said Ryan Schoen, Product Manager of Chrome on the Chromium blog. The system developed on the browser will allow users to continue viewing the page, while all redirects originating from third-party iframes will show an ” infobar “.

The news will be presented with Chrome 64, currently in the early beta phase, which will arrive later this year. Another problem that you want to solve is when you click on a link that leads to an advertisement, while the requested content is proposed in a new tab: ” It is bypass of the pop-up blocker of Chrome, one of the features. Most used by our users: Starting with Chrome 65, we will be able to detect this behavior and launch an infobar, preventing the main tab from being redirected “.

This will allow the user to continue the browsing experience as desired while preserving the context of the page they came from. Finally, there are pages that disguise themselves as a media player and instead download unwanted content, or other pages that have overlays that, when clicked, lead the browser to an advertisement. They are difficult to detect, but starting from January, Chrome’s pop-up blocker will prevent the opening of new windows and tabs, also stemming from the latter unwanted phenomenon.

To preserve sites from problems arising from third-party items, Google will allow webmasters to complete an Abusive Experience Report by reporting items that violate company guidelines. The company also announces that currently a report of five is related to unwanted content that appear with the pressure of a link, but the new measures that will be taken with the next Chrome should reduce the phenomenon.
