Ghostery 8 used to have a feature to block redirects through known trackers. With Declarative Web Request (Manifest V3), it is impossible to block those redirects and show some informative UI, so the feature was temporarily removed.

We want to reintroduce this feature in Ghostery 10, but with additional control. User should be able to allow redirect through tracking domain on certain pages (like search engines). Once protection is disable, it should be possible to re-enable it from the website settings. Additionally, "Selective Blocking" should take affect on the redirect protection, so trusted activities should not be blocked.
