Cleanredirect

Stop unwanted redirects. Keep the ones you meant.

CleanRedirect silently intercepts programmatic redirects -- the ones ads and malicious scripts trigger without your consent -- while letting every click, tap, and keypress you make navigate freely.

How it works

-Gesture-aware blocking: CleanRedirect tracks real user interactions (clicks, taps, keyboard input). Navigations that follow a genuine gesture pass through; scripted redirects that fire on their own are stopped.
-Tracking parameter stripping from URLs so you arrive at clean links.
-Domain blocking: Known ad networks, pop-under services, and malicious redirect domains are blocked at the network level.
-Stealth design: The extension leaves zero fingerprints. No window globals, no modified prototypes, no detectable wrappers. Attempts to evaide Anti-adblock scripts
