I tried to generate a URI instance for the following url address:
https://na.ads.yahoo.com/yax/banner?ve=1&tt=1&si=248364058&asz=300x250&u=https://www.yahoo.com/&publisher_blob=pt:home;ver:megastrm|5BJCrzEwLjKen55xWxY162ZyMjAyLgAAAADrEBAl|2023538075|LREC|872160447|&pub_redirect=https://us.y.atwola.com/adlink|5113.1|4830399|0|170|AdId=10547753;BnId=1;guid=9t7sue5dhcdfb&b=3&s=se;itime=872160447;kvsecure%2Ddarla=3%2D4%2D0%7Cysd%7C1;kvmn=y406192;kvssp=brxd;kvrs=home:megastrm:ver:pt;kvsecure=true;kvpgcolo=gq1;kvy%2Dbucket=strm007%2Cfptr005%2C837677%2Cfpdeal502;kvadtc%5Fdvmktname=unknown;kvadtc%5Fdvosplt=windows%5F7;kvadtc%5Fdvbrand=google;kvadtc%5Fdvtype=desktop;kvadtc%5Fdvmodel=chrome%5F%2D%5Fwindows;kvrepo%5Fdvosplt=windows%5F7;kvadtc%5Fdvosversion=NT%206%2E1;kvadtc%5Fcrmcc=UNKNOWN;kvadtc%5Fcrmnc=UNKNOWN;kvadtc%5Fcrcountry=jp;gdpr=0;nodecode=yes;adclntid=1004;spaceid=2023538075;link=&K=1

but got the following exception when URL.toURI()

Exception in thread "main" java.net.URISyntaxException: Illegal character in query at index 131: https://na.ads.yahoo.com/yax/banner?ve=1&tt=1&si=248364058&asz=300x250&u=https://www.yahoo.com/&publisher_blob=pt:home;ver:megastrm|5BJCrzEwLjKen55xWxY162ZyMjAyLgAAAADrEBAl|2023538075|LREC|872160447|&pub_redirect=https://us.y.atwola.com/adlink|5113.1|4830399|0|170|AdId=10547753;BnId=1;guid=9t7sue5dhcdfb&b=3&s=se;itime=872160447;kvsecure%2Ddarla=3%2D4%2D0%7Cysd%7C1;kvmn=y406192;kvssp=brxd;kvrs=home:megastrm:ver:pt;kvsecure=true;kvpgcolo=gq1;kvy%2Dbucket=strm007%2Cfptr005%2C837677%2Cfpdeal502;kvadtc%5Fdvmktname=unknown;kvadtc%5Fdvosplt=windows%5F7;kvadtc%5Fdvbrand=google;kvadtc%5Fdvtype=desktop;kvadtc%5Fdvmodel=chrome%5F%2D%5Fwindows;kvrepo%5Fdvosplt=windows%5F7;kvadtc%5Fdvosversion=NT%206%2E1;kvadtc%5Fcrmcc=UNKNOWN;kvadtc%5Fcrmnc=UNKNOWN;kvadtc%5Fcrcountry=jp;gdpr=0;nodecode=yes;adclntid=1004;spaceid=2023538075;link=&K=1
