When I go to the FB login page, multiple login pages appear in my browsing history, all with same url. Why?

more options

When I right click the back arrow button, the dropdown shows up to 5 or 6 FB login pages. They all have the same url but if I click on the first one it also creates multiple login pages. The only way I can get them to vanish is to clear my browsing history before I proceed with logging in to FB. Is this something FB is doing, or is it Firefox, or is it malware? I'm on a laptop. PC.

Facebook created three of these for me in one test and six in another. I get it in Firefox as well as Chrome. The internal pages are each redirects that bring you to the final login. This is definitely something that Facebook is doing.

I would just ignore it. This is how they decided to implement their login. I think the intermediate pages do different checks on their way to logging you in.

Hope that helps! Have a nice day!
