I keep getting browser redirects on some anime websites and i have to click back on the the browser repeatedly until it let's me go back to the original page. It's one of those "your device is at risk" redirects. How do i stop this from happening. AdBlocker is not helping

Hi nameless5r, Just tap and hold the back button, to see a list of recent pages, then tap on the page you want to go back to.

Hello nameless5r! The problems you are experiencing are very common among the types of websites you are visiting! (I'm not judging)... We can't really help you with that because the websites are driven by the profit that ads give, and those ads can be really annoying, like that one. AdBlocker doesn't seem to help because the popups aren't ads but, as you said, redirects to a website. I hope I could provide some information!
