Yes, absolutely! Right now it is currently working on Firefox 95+. Sorry for not responding to this for so long, I must not have seen the notification.

    youtube uses tags like ?si=
    Can you add them too?

    I found some more tracking parameters.

    Because many sites are realizing we massively block or spoof the referrer header, they started putting them in the URL instead. Here are a few I found:

    ?referrer=
    ?ref=
    ?r=

    The last one is probably hard to safely remove because it may be a legit parameter for a dynamic site. Props to whoever thought of using that to smuggle the referrer.

    is it possible to add guccounter for yahoo?

    Looks like that parameter is literally just a "counter". Maybe it increments but all I've seen lately is "?guccounter=1". Doesn't look like a tracking ID to me so I'm probably going to skip this for now. Good find though, thanks for asking.

    Thanks to the author for the actual addon. Sir, could you please add ysclid for yandex search engine. We are very much looking forward to it.

    Meant to respond back to you awhile ago but I merged in a PR (that I assume it from you based on your username) that added ysclid, roughly 2 years ago!

    Works in the background and does it so well I often forget I have it installed.

    Very nice so far.
    Would it be possible to also get rid of "xtor" parameter?

    Is this extension still relevant in Firefox versions 91+?

    Edit: Also, does it play well with uBlock Origin?

    Here you go. It's on the "Support site" link/button but I'll add it to the description too!

    I think it works good so far!

    If you did the copy link url thing working like in the previous comment, it isn't removing fbclid with the ascii escape charactors in the url like:
    https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dataplicity.com%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIw&h=AjU
    (greatly shortened for readability)

    I haven't done anything for "Copy link location" yet. It would require obtaining clipboard permissions and adding significantly to the codebase, so I'm probably not getting around to it any time soon to be honest. Best thing is just open the link in a new tab and then copy/paste that URL.
  • troch Peter Thaleikis, 5 jierren lyn
    Nice! Works well. How about adding "ref"?
  • troch Firefox-brûker 5702412, 5 jierren lyn
    Just tested it with Firefox 76.0.1.

    Let me update my review:

    What's good:

    It does stop the end site from seeing the ?fbclid parameter. I reconfirmed this with mitmproxy. (Live HTTP headers on the other hand showed the unchanged HTTP request).

    How it could be better:

    1) Changes the URL presented by facebook to the end URL, so that facebook doesn't know you've clicked on a link, and
    2) All right-click copy link to copy the end link, rather than the facebook link.

    Cheers

    Facebook uses some php link redirector thing when you click outgoing links. When the URL finishes loading (using the one you posted as an example) does it redirect to "https://www.theonion.com/tyson-promises-meatpackers-who-die-from-coronavirus-wil-1843678529"?

    It simply does the job, thanks a lot for that!

    I did wish it would also remove the fbclid when I do a right click + "Copy link location", to share URLs via e-mails. Not sure if that's possible, but I would definitely love to see that!

    Thank you for your review! Going to start looking into removing fbclid and utms on copy link location and getting that into a new release ASAP!

    Works like a charm. Thank you for your job.

    Noticed a site which also uses utm_referrer
    yandex.com/news
    It's a news aggregator. When you open an article and follow to origin sources then utm_referrer is added

    Thanks for your review! I'll add utm_referrer to the list in the next update.
