Skip Google Redirect Firefox

Skip Google Redirect

Skips Google's url redirect page by reading the target address and forwarding there directly.

Features & Capabilities

Skip Google Redirect for Chrome bypasses Google's intermediary redirect page by reading the actual destination URL and loading it directly in your browser. This results in faster navigation and better privacy by reducing exposure of your target URLs.

Additionally, it handles YouTube redirects, letting you reach videos and pages without the extra tracking step.

The only one that only track data on google.com and youtube.com, not your entire web navigation... And work perfectly for me so far! HUGE thanks to the dev(s)!!

Stops some google results eg support.google.com and books.google.com from working, and there's no way to whitelist them and no way to know which extension did it

Is Skip Google Redirect Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
