Remove the redirect links from Facebook's external links

Features & Capabilities

Facebook™ Direct Links is a lightweight Chrome extension designed to enhance your browsing experience on Facebook by removing the redirect links that Facebook uses to track clicks on external links. As of April 2023, Facebook changed its link tracking to mostly server-side, so this extension now works primarily on external links embedded directly in posts (not previews).

This extension quickly and efficiently blocks the typical redirect behavior, allowing users to navigate directly to the external URLs without being tracked by Facebook's redirection system. If you want a faster, privacy-friendly way to access links on Facebook, Facebook™ Direct Links is an ideal tool to have installed.

Is Facebook™ Direct Links Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Facebook™ Direct Links requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Facebook™ Direct Links has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
