There are still lots of tracking parameters it doesn't remove. It does not bypass redirects like doubleclick.net/redirect?url=..., either.

I'd prefer if it worked with personal and community managed filters, like every good adblocker does now.

It'll warn you before you go to shit tracking redirectors though.

The point is to bypass them, so it won't go to https://click-tracker.com/redirect?url=https%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Findex.php%23content%3Fpage%3Dwelcome%26say%3Dhello&clickID=a68bd9003 but https://example.com/index.php#content?page=welcome&say=hello already.

I didn't know about that! I always use Ctrl+C of course. I'll look out for this next time
