- Valutade 5 su 5di Utent Firefox 18902095, 7 luni în urmăyoutube uses tags like ?si=
Can you add them too? - Valutade 4 su 5di Korwin, 8 luni în urmă
- Valutade 4 su 5di Utent Firefox 16817970, un an în urmăI 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. Rispueste dal svilupadôr
publicât ai 7 luni în urmăLooks 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.- Valutade 5 su 5di Hamtaro, 3 ani în urmă
- Valutade 5 su 5di Кек, 3 ani în urmăThanks 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.

publicât ai 7 luni în urmăMeant 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!

- Valutade 4 su 5di Utent Firefox 13361818, 4 ani în urmăVery nice so far.
Would it be possible to also get rid of "xtor" parameter? - Valutade 4 su 5di Beachbubba, 5 ani în urmăIs this extension still relevant in Firefox versions 91+?
Edit: Also, does it play well with uBlock Origin?Rispueste dal svilupadôr
publicât ai 4 ani în urmăYes, 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. - Valutade 5 su 5di int_ua, 5 ani în urmă

- Valutade 5 su 5di madflower, 5 ani în urmăI 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

publicât ai 5 ani în urmăI 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. - Valutade 3 su 5di Utent Firefox 5702412, 5 ani în urmăJust 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.

publicât ai 5 ani în urmăFacebook 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"? - Valutade 5 su 5di Utent Firefox 15940033, 5 ani în urmă

- Valutade 4 su 5di Alexis Prel, 6 ani în urmăIt 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!Rispueste dal svilupadôr
publicât ai 5 ani în urmăThank 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!
