I got bored one day, and decided to try looking for a certain capacity samsung ssd on the bing shopping page; ever since then, I've had these bing rebates tags on certain search results when using bing (this 4/whatever% tags next to the URL's), and when I try clicking on them, my ublock origin shows the jdoqocy tag as blocked, so I go and whitelist it, and then the website just fails to load
so I restore my computer's hosts file to its default unmodified state, try again,. and after whitelisting these redirect websites, I get to the website I need to go to (a samsung link, newegg, etc..., whichever link is affected by bing rebates). Thing is, I didnt want bing rebates turned on, and I can't seem to find a way to turn bing rebates off on my account as I don't want that service if it hinders my attempts at visiting websites I wish to go to (even if I whitelist the redirects to my ublock origin extension)
is there a way I can turn off bing rebates, or can microsoft turn it off for me; my web browser is firefox nightly (73.0a1 2020-01-04) 64-Bit), I use the hostsman program, and ublock origin along with nano defender and a few other extensions to protect myself against malicious ads and other stuff. I do not wish to uninstall ublock origin, nano defender, or any extension/program that can protect me from malicious websites/ads, and im not getting rid of hostsman either. ALL I wish for, is to get bing rebates turned off for me, so I can visit any website link that pops up for me in bing without getting stymied by redirects like jdoqocy or whatever other one bing is making me use apparently
before this, I did not need to worry about these redirects, but now, this is making me a bit mad to be frank
