Description

tracklessURL is an open-source privacy-focused extension that automatically removes tracking parameters from URLs before they're visited. Using the Declarative Net Request API, tracklessURL is able to modify URLs without ever requiring intrusive permissions. This means the extension is unable to view or store what websites you visit. The source code can be found on my GitHub at https://github.com/col1010/tracklessURL. Features: • Frequently updated built-in list of the most common URL trackers, such as UTM (Urchin Tracking Modules) parameters, Facebook trackers (fbclid), and multiple other social media and marketing website trackers. • Fully user-customizable: Simple, intuitive user interface allows you to add your own rules for blocking parameters. Delete, edit, toggle, or group rules together at any time. • Global whitelist feature provides an easy way to whitelist any websites that may behave incorrectly because of parameter removal. • Multiple ways to add rules: Add a parameter manually by specifying the parameter to block and the websites to block it on or paste a URL containing tracking parameters to quickly add new rules to block them. See the GitHub repository for further information.

This extension has never worked for me. By default, it does nothing. Clicking on it just opens a settings page. Right-clicking does nothing. Nada. And there are no instructions of any kind, for configuring settings. Ridiculous.
