On malicious websites, there are things that the page does not change unintentionally, even if you click the "back" button to leave the page, you can not return to the previous page unless you click successively. Such behavior is a design that dislikes users as "history manipulation", which makes profits by inserting advertisements while forcing users to stay on the page.

According to Chrome developers, the problem of history manipulation has been continuing for at least two years. History manipulation, which is guaranteed to give users frustration, is a troublesome issue for Google, which advertises web ads, and Google has taken full-scale action on history manipulation.



Google Chrome secretly flags pages that do not receive welcome history from users and sends the analysis results to Google Eventually pages with malicious history operations will be completely skipped Thing.

Since there is a possibility of causing an unexpected behavior before it is made that there is not a page with history operation completely, first of all, the function "# enable - skip - redirecting - entries - on - back - forward - ui" Is set as a hidden flag in an invalid state and the state that skipping treatment is avoided until the function is activated is maintained. If it is confirmed that unexpected trouble does not occur, the function will be activated.

Flags to skip over pages with history operations will be introduced in advance to Chrome Canary before being introduced to Chrome .
