Firefox automatically redirects despite enabling 'accessibility.blockautorefresh'
Steps to reproduce- (1) Enable 'accessibility.blockautorefresh' in 'about:config' (This is said to ask for permission before redirecting) (2) Go here (3) End up here without permission
Extensions I'm using- Privacy Badger, uBlock origin, clearURLs and Show/hide passwords
Another question, does enabling this setting also stop internal redirection?

Of course not.
This preference "accessibility.blockautorefresh" blocks only refresh of a page triggered by the meta tag. It's not the same as redirect. Redirect moves you from one address to another, while refresh makes you stay on the same address.

Is there any setting I can do to stop all refreshes and redirection? I'm fine with extensions too
