<![CDATA[Stop hyperlink ping tracking in future]]>I just heard a rumour that Chrome will remove the experimental setting that can disable ping tracking. I suspect this is likely to happen to Opera as well. Is there any way to force disabling ping tracking for hyperlinks? Is the only solution to add a partial URL into My Filters in uBlock Origin? Would "ping=" do the trick?

Was already using it, so I guess I won't worry about writing a script or anything like that.

What are you going to use instead?

Not sure yet. Will probably use Tampermonkey with a user script that removes the ping attribute from all links.

What are you going to use instead? I already added that partial URL into uBlock Origin, but I wonder if that is adequate or if there is some other syntax that should be used as well?
