Lately I’ve noticed some mainstream sites injection tracking links into literally every link on their site.

When I hover over it, it shows the correct link at the bottom of my browser, but if I click it or copy it, it takes me to a hijacked tracker link.

Then I can’t even get the original link without having my activity tracked.

How do I get the original link that appears at the bottom of my browser?

    They just hijack the link that someone else posts and replace it with an entirely new tracking link with a l.facebook.com domain

    So this isn’t Facebook on every occasion then, it’s related to the site you’re visiting? If so, the extension will hopefully fix it :)
