Blocking meta refresh redirects

[seanrand]

Some sites use meta refresh to redirect the tab to ads after several seconds.
As far as I know, there's currently no ad blocker that can handle this type of obnoxious ad/redirect and I haven't seen it being discussed in the issues of uBlock/uBlock₀ (beyond the mention by flyingzebras in chrisaljoudi:#1397).

• Issue on the AdBlock Plus tracker: https://issues.adblockplus.org/ticket/2095
• Thread in the AdGuard forums (russian): http://forum.adguard.com/showthread.php?2309-http-www-pics-money-ru-3-85677.
  Although AdGuard's HTML filtration rules looked like a promising solution to me, the user over there seems to be saying that the filtration rule pics-money.ru$$meta[http-equiv="refresh"] doesn't stop the redirect.

Here's an example, it should redirect after 12 seconds: http://www.pics-money.ru/4/14613/

Edit: Although it addresses a different use-case (pages that use meta refresh to reload themselves), there is an extension on the Chrome web store that might be of interest: Stop AutoRefresh

Futpib introduced this feature in the latest dev version of Policeman.
futpib/policeman@522dd1c + older commits address this issue.

I've had my own ideas about how to implement such a thing, I won't use anybody else's ideas for this: I have to come up with something which works for both Firefox and Chromium, and I plan on an implementation which works for both server- and client-side redirects.

Isn't taken care by the popunder filter option?

Yes, as far as I can tell it's taken care of. Well, at least I can't reproduce it anymore as almost all of the examples linked are either down or at least outdated.
