Google Cracks Down on Deceptive Back Button Tactics

Google takes action against websites that trap users and disrupt the browsing experience using manipulative back button techniques.
Google, the tech industry giant, has announced that it will be taking measures to punish websites that employ deceptive tactics to trap users and prevent them from easily navigating back to the previous page. Starting from June, the company will be cracking down on sites that block or interfere with the back button functionality, a move aimed at improving the overall browsing experience for internet users.
The issue of back button manipulation has been a long-standing problem on the web, with some websites employing various techniques to keep users from easily leaving their pages. This can include pop-ups, interstitials, or other obstacles that make it difficult for users to return to the previous page. Google has recognized this as a frustrating experience for its users and has decided to take action to address the problem.
