## Description

noredirect-II gives you control over automatic page redirects.

It intercepts HTTP 3xx redirects, Refresh headers, meta refresh redirects, and JavaScript-driven page navigations. When a redirect is stopped, the page stays visible and a compact top bar shows the destination so you can follow it only when you choose.

Features:
- Intercept HTTP 301, 302, 303, 307 and 308 redirects.
- Intercept Refresh response headers.
- Intercept meta refresh tags.
- Intercept common JavaScript navigation methods.
- Follow or dismiss intercepted redirects from the page top bar.
- Whitelist trusted domains.
- Toggle redirect interception globally.
- Keep local-only counters for intercepted HTTP and JavaScript redirects.

noredirect-II is inspired by the legacy NoRedirect Firefox/SeaMonkey extension by Kai Liu.
