I was wondering if you could view the previous website someone was looking at using some sort of workaround like browser.history.go.back.

I am working on a project. Just to see how much information you could collect on someone just by going to a website.

If they click on a link to get to your website you can get the original URL from the `Referer` header. – Barmar Oct 26 '20 at 21:21
