Please explain the issue you are experiencing.

The URL I'm trying to access, which https://charexempire.com/SF13LPUP, redirects to cloutgist.com as part of its url shortening service but for some reason, the site wont let me get past the "Your Link Scanning..." page, it just returns to the first cloutgist page which has the captcha verification and it wont let me go to the target url.

I've confirmed that uBO isn't the cause as it works on another Firefox fork that doesn't use Phoenix with the same uBO configuration.

@quickie Thanks for the report. Can you please try setting network.http.referer.XOriginPolicy to 1?

Hi, sorry for necroing on this closed issue but I seem to be having problems with the redirect again. I'm not sure if this is a Firefox, or an issue with Phoenix itself but visiting the URL won't redirect me to the actual URL itself but on Chrome it redirects me to a Google URL string https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://kecapku.com/&ved=2ahUKEwj9tdnV-82NAxWVzwIHHY4iBhYQFnoECBgQAQ&usg=AOvVaw2iSnDQYVTrxvO6RMwTWjQP, which then redirects me to kecapku.com, which has the actual contents of the site.

I tried disabling every protections I could think of, but I must have missed something. I'm using IronFox.

About the previous workaround, I kept XOriginPolicy at 1, updated the IronFox app to 140.0 with Phoenix v2025.06.24 and I have no clue how, but the site is working properly again.
