  1. YOU'VE BEEN THERE: browsing on a slightly backwater website, crossing your fingers as you click what looks like a video's play button. Instead of the TV show you had queued up, a million pop-ups spew out. The page you were on morphs into a Caribbean timeshare ad. It's the sort of misdirection that Google aptly calls an "unwanted behavior." And on Wednesday, the company's Chrome browser team announced a series of fixes that attempt to block these sketchy shenanigans.

    Chrome already has a pop-up blocker, and a tool to control autoplaying videos. But the new features will take these user controls a step further. Beginning in Chrome 64, which is currently in developer preview, the browser will block third-party media components (HTML modules known as "iframes" that are often used to display things like ads) from triggering redirects unless you directly click on them.
