This page on fsf.org takes you to google.com when you click on an unrelated image

Clicking on that picture in the link brought me back to this post. So it seems it just directs you back to the referrer.
- Yep. It sends me to fsf.org. If the link goes here or anywhere else and such things bother you, fix your "referer" settings.
- Oh, seems like I didn't consider the possibility that the href value I saw in the inspector is dynamically generated.
This seems like a potentially clever defense against scrapers...which probably spoof the referrer field to be the base domain anyways.
