[As noted by security researcher Will Dormann](https://twitter.com/wdormann/status/1769946620479562100 "(opens in a new window)"), some posts on X purport to lead to a legitimate website, but actually redirect somewhere else. In Dormann's example, an advertisement posted by a verified X user claims to lead to [forbes.com](http://forbes.com/ "(opens in a new window)"). When Dormann clicks the link, however, it takes him to a different link to open a Telegram channel that is, "helping individuals earn maximum profit in the crypto market," he said. In short, the "Forbes" link leads to crypto spam
I need a firefox plugin that blocks Twitter. Not tweets from blue checkmarks, the whole damn site.
I have Nitter Redirect installed, but Nitter stopped working. So it just blackholes all X links. Some day I'll add them to my pihole, I guess.
PiHole can block any domain you want. AdGuardHome has a handy switch in the UI that does it for you.
PrivacyBadger blocks embedded tweets, so since you're probably not going to visit the website itself, it should do the trick.
Plus, it has the added benefit of drawing attention to how many "articles" on other sites are just a long string of embedded tweets.
