Auto Redirect To "Did You Mean" Results

This extension is most useful for distraction blockers that rely on on the proper spelling of words in the URL in order to block pages.

Whenever you misspell something on Google, it shows you a "Did you mean?" suggestion. This browser extension automatically redirects to that "Did you mean" link. This is most useful for distraction blockers that rely on on the proper spelling of words in the URL in order to block pages. If you're not using a distraction blocker that relies on the spelling in URLs to block, you don't need this.

Without this browser extension, there's a super big problem with distraction blockers, which is the fact that you can just purposely misspell a word and still get the distracting results to show up in search. For example, you could have "celebrities" blocked with your chosen distraction blocker browser extension. But by simply misspelling it as "celebr ities" or "celebrisdties, Google still shows the search results for "celebrities" and your distraction blocker is unable to block it. But by auto-redirecting to the that "did you mean" link at the top of the page, you can't fool your distraction blocker.
