      I literally read “The Black History” 4 times in utter confusion.

    I think Microsoft support webpages do this to the back button. I can’t get back to my search page results by clicking the back button after clicking a link to a Microsoft support webpage. It always redirects me back. I either have to hold the back button down and select the search page from the drop down or double click the back button.

      Pretty much every microsoft site does a massive number of redirects to get to the actual page, it’s ridiculous.

        After getting stuck in some seriously stupid redirect loops when using Outlook, I assume Microsoft is just horribly incompetent

      That is exactly why I almost always open search results in a new tab.

    Dear lord I can’t believe this is only now becoming a feature - those redirect spammers are the worst! What do you gain from making my life more difficult? I just close the tab and search again, this time with your website blacklisted.

      Most of the time it is just some incompetent webdevs implements redirect in a bad way, but there are some websites abuse it maliciously.
