Highlights The platform team has sent an Intent to Ship for the :has selector! Currently targeting Firefox 121. There’s a new item in the content context menu in Nightly ...
Currently still in Nightly and only on ‘Copy Link’. Still nice progress though.
Right now you have to go out of your way to select the “Copy without tracking params” from the context menu. It’s not like it threatens Google’s business model
If they do start changing them you’ll need an uRemoveTheGoddamnTrackingParamsOrigin extension
Changing those param names can actually be pretty complex, because they’re used for all sorts of analytics. Whole ad campaigns revolve around those codes, behind the scenes.
I don’t want to give these people any ideas, but you can just pseudo randomize parameter names and decode them server side before storing them for analytics, so this is a non issue.
So how long before they start changing the param names? Lol
