Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ

I’m a vaguely amateurish user, but I use Mozilla with a VPN and UBlock Origin to watch Sportsurge. I’ve never had this problem before, but now when I click on a stream or click play/volume for any sport, it forwards me to spammy background tabs.

I get it, it’s free, but I’m wondering if something changed because this never used to be a problem. I purged Ublock’s cache to see if that would help, and it didn’t— I read through this sub for other solutions and that was the only thing that popped up. I also tried updating the filters list and that didn’t help either.

Wondering if anyone knows what’s going on or is suddenly having this problem (and potentially how to fix).
