Off topic: Is there a chrome extension that will strip these query parameters off automatically when a user clicks on links?

I found https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/url-tracking-strip... but wasn't sure if someone might have found a superior extension.

I created this [1] some time ago to manipulate links in the pages that I visit.

This part [2] removes the UTM parameters from the links in certain websites.

However, I stopped updating the extension when I switched to Safari some time ago.

I used to use this one [3] which was actually my inspiration to create my own project.

I prefer "Ghostery" which is more efficient in "Tracking" overall. try it out.

Aren't ghostery the ones who sell your personal info and allow advertisers to pay them to get on a whitelist? UBlock Origin is my recommendation.

You may prefer it to Ghostery, but it doesn't actually address GP's request, for query parameter stripping does it?
