As an aside, I've been pleasantly surprised by Firefox's latest privacy additions. Earlier today, while clicking around looking monitors on various sites, I kept running into what looked like a malware alert, suggesting I was being redirected to a possibly malicious website. Turns out that was true, but it wasn't the traditional reason that you'd see in older version of windows, and in rare cases on macOS, where some download would hijack your browser configuration and redirect you to god knows where. Nope, it was just regular ad tracking bs, even on seemingly non-malicious links, such as those that link to Dell's product page from Macrumors. Inspect the link, and it seems to link directly to where the hover effect would have you believe. Right-click and click "copy link" however, and you'd paste into the address bar the obscured redirect url. Since I'd been using a blocker for some time on my other computer, I didn't even realize it had got this bad. Thanks Firefox for enabling this by default, and revealing standard Google search ads to be the malicious crap they are.
