- kristianp 8y agoThat's not going to stop the referrer from being available to the page. In chrome hit F12 and in the console type document.referrer.
- wiether 8y agoDoesn't change the referer but avoid you falling in that current trap. Anyway, using a new tab for each new website you visit is the way to go I think.
- rellui 8y agoMaybe it's a good trade off for this to become default behavior in browsers (in the background unseen by users).
- dennisgorelik 8y agoIf user does not see that she is operating in a new tab, she can still click "back" and would still be vulnerable to the "Fake Google Serp" trick.
- jsjohnst 8y agoGoogle even has a settings options where all SERP links open in a new tab. I personally use it myself.
