Currently still in Nightly and only on ‘Copy Link’. Still nice progress though.

    firefox removes tracking data

    chrome wants to make it possible for websites to refuse to serve you data if you run unapproved software

    there is, in fact, a good guy in the browser wars

    Ooh. I hope this can be set as the default for ‘Copy Link’ and then I can just have the tracking when I actually want it.

      have the tracking when I actually want it.

      So never? I agree defaulting it would be great as long as it doesn’t falsely remove anything.

        Not all queryparameters are tracking, so the option to copy the actual href of the hyperlink is useful.

        Most of the time I appreciate a feature that strips them automatically

          Yea, existing extensions get things wrong sometimes. I’m sure this will be the same - especially if sites start changing things to temporarily circumvent. Needs to be an easy way to grab the real URL just in case.

    That’s awesome! I use the Clear URLs extension and it does a great job but it’ll be nice to have this capability baked in.
