Heads up, I had to remove this extension on my browser because some websites would get stuck in a redirect loop because it'd remove the tracking stuff it'd use in a redirect chain. Took me months to figure out what was causing it
This is built-in to firefox rightclick menu when copying the URL, no extension needed. Less extensions means less fingerprint
That'll address the case where one is copy-pasting an URL, but not where following existing links.
