Just what I was looking for. I use this addon in combination with some scripts, because the scripts don't seem to work 100% of the time. 1. https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/432387-general-url-cleaner-revived 2. https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/433408-youtube-url-tracker-remover However your addon doesn't seem to fix instagram, facebook url tracking! https://l.instagram.com/?u= https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u= This is why I have blocked these sites with 0.0.0.0 with uBlockOrigin ... this way I can manually copy the links without the tracking.

Is TrackBlock 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.

TrackBlock requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

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.

TrackBlock has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
