+ in url keeps erroneously getting changed to %20 in URL

Project Member Reported by khazhy@google.com, Jul 1 2017 
Chrome Version       : 59.0.3071.115
OS Version:

  N/A

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Clicking on a link with a "+" in the url
2. Sometimes, the + gets translated into a %20, and the resulting page is 404
3. After replacing the %20 with a plus again, the browser seems to remember

What is the expected result?
The + stays as a +

What happens instead of that?
The + turns into a %20, sometimes

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.

This started happening a few days ago, and now happens at least once a day.

Hmm, this might be a proxy thing:

1. Close all chrome windows/quit chrome
2. Open a link with a + in the url from your bookmarks
It'll open to + replaced with %20
3. Open the link again, it'll go to the correct page this time. ???
