How to Stop Link Redirection
When you click on a link and it redirects you to a different site, there is little you can do unless you have access to the backend server of the site that is redirecting you. Link redirection has nothing to do with the link, but has everything to do with the HTML of the page that is being linked to. If you have an HTML page that is redirecting users after they click on a link that leads to it, you can disable the redirect code on your HTML page.
