Webpage Link Access Not Locked Down on iOS 16.3

The issue is that on devices 16.3 or newer icons and hyperlinks on the webpage are now accessible. They were always visible but when clicking them there would be no response. Now you can choose hyperlinks, icons on a webpage and they open in the newer iOS.

Is there a setting or an update that can be made so the app behaves the way it did in iOS 16.2 and older? 

Thanks,
