My current tab redirects me to another site on the same tab
I usually spend time reading articles in various sites and some of these sites have videos on it matching the article. But I lose my reading/ watching progress because without even clicking or pressing anything, the current tab redirects me to another site. Mostly, it'll redirect me to sites that starts with some kind of survey or just some download video downloader stuff. And I know these are potentially harmful sites. It pisses me off losing my reading/ watching progress because of these redirects. Please help me solve this. Thank you.
PS: I already disabled and removed all unwanted extensions and/or plug-ins
