Just a tip: always strip the
si=...
parameter from URLs. Thesi
parameter is a form of tracking from platforms (particularly Youtube and Soundcloud, although other platforms use it as well), so the platforms can know who shared things and who opened the things that the former shared. When you send a clean link, without thesi
parameter, it's more difficult (if not impossible) for platforms to determine who shared the link being opened/downloaded.Do my VPN and browser extensions help at all in obfuscating these data from the platform when I share a link?
If you use the adblocker uBlock Origin, enable these filter lists which strips URL tracking parameters.
Instructions:
⭐ Enable AdGuard URL Tracking Protection
⭐ Import Actually Legitimate URL Shortener Tool
- Check Import under Filter Lists > Custom
- Paste in this URL -> https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DandelionSprout/adfilt/master/LegitimateURLShortener.txt
- Click Apply Changes
I can’t use uBlock, but I have an extension that should accept these filters.
Sweet, TY. Editing my comment.
