Extension summary
Would you want someone following you around your home, grocery store, work, friend's house, local bar and anywhere else you fancy going?
That's exactly what's happening right now on the web when you are casually sipping a cup of coffee or wine or just warm milk and surfing the web - someone is watching your steps - without your permission. We want to fix that.
UntrackMe is:
- simply removing tracking information from URLs
- For e.g. removing "?utm_campaign=socialflow_lifehacker_facebook&utm_source=lifehacker_facebook&utm_medium=socialflow" from "http://lifehacker.com/nine-simple-tips-for-improving-your-table-manners-at-fa-1782221528?utm_campaign=socialflow_lifehacker_facebook&utm_source=lifehacker_facebook&utm_medium=socialflow"
UntrackMe is not:
- ad blocking tool
- tracking or storing your data
- a heavy appication that will slow down your browser
User reviews
Not working. Doesn't clean up the url. Checked on several google searches to begin with. Checked on chrome browsers, opera browser and edge browser. Consider updating it in 2023.
Excellent tracking blocker!
