The hijacker did and it did so behind your back. Your permission was not required. So, you open your favorite browser one way only to see that your preferred homepage and search engine are gone and the ROBLOX.COM is in their places. Whatever you do, you cannot change them back. The hijacker made this reshuffle and there is nothing you can do about it. Aside from that, you are constantly redirected to third-party pages which you had no intention of visiting whatsoever. Yet, the hijacker redirects you to them because this boots web traffic and earns hackers` revenue.
Also, your entire screen is completely covered with adverts in all shapes and forms which become more in numbers and more intrusive with each passing day. Your browsing experience turns into a nightmare. But there is more. The hijacker also jeopardizes your privacy by spying on you and monitoring your every online move. It has access to your IPs, email addresses, usernames, passwords, accounts, browser-related data, etc. If you are particularly unlucky, the pest may even get its hands on your personally identifiable and financial details.
