If you have JavaScript enabled, that is. JWZ at least does the redirect on the server side.

The following is pulled in from `https://soc.me/assets/js/turnBack.js`:

    const undesirables = [
      "news.ycombinator.com/",
      // "reddit.com/", // disable temporaily
      "lobste.rs/"
    ] ;

    if (undesirables.find(site => document.referrer.includes(site))) {
      window.location.replace(document.referrer);
    }

I wonder why Reddit is "temporarily not undesirable".

Git history doesn't explain it unfortunately

Although, when we inspect author's profile on lobste.rs, we'll see that he's banned:

https://lobste.rs/~soc [Banned 4 years ago by pushcx: Troll.]

Maybe he's banned from HN as well. And this 'undesirables' is a method of taking some kind of revenge.

Author has said that development is moved to codeberg, but github version was good enough for the "turnBack.js" analysis.

Uh, before I wrote my sibling comment I read 'comment' as 'commit' and because of it I somehow assumed it was a github link... not sure how that happened.

Anyway, the user named 'soc' on HN has "listbite" in the description. I saw this profile, but I think it's not the same guy. But also I wasn't sure so I didn't paste the link to HN at all.

Why are they undesirable though
