Doesn't work on my Firefox either. Brought me to the real site. I do have all privacy options on, and ublock Origin. So maybe something just deleted the referrer. Or it got deleted because it points to google (I have google container on).
The `rel="noreferrer"` attribute on the link instructs the browser to omit the Referer header on the request. So any browser that respects that option shouldn't be impacted by that code.
