- Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 16817970, 8 moannen lynI 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. - Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 13192725, 9 moannen lynis it possible to add guccounter for yahoo?

3 moannen lyn pleatstLooks 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. - Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 13361818, 3 jierren lynVery nice so far.
Would it be possible to also get rid of "xtor" parameter? - Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch Beachbubba, 4 jierren lynIs this extension still relevant in Firefox versions 91+?
Edit: Also, does it play well with uBlock Origin?Antwurd ûntwikkeler
3 jierren lyn pleatstYes, 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. - Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch TK, 4 jierren lynDoes what it needs to do ; looking for the Github URL to contribute though to contribute :)

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!Antwurd ûntwikkeler
