Anyone know if things like uBlock Origin already handle this? 🤔

uBlock Origin doesn’t doesn’t by default, but apparently you can enable a filter which removes tracking params from your URLs. I’ve not personally used this, but I use an add-on called ClearURLs which does something similar.

ClearURLs isn’t on Firefox Android, however (for now). uBlock and Privacy Badger are

I use fennec with a custom extensions list. You can add any extension you want.

Using Firefox on Android, version 117.1.0, and ClearURLs is there.

I use this uBlock Origin filter for cleaning URLs:

Imagine a world where you share links with your friends and google now grouped you into cohort, sold the data to some clowns to market useless product to you and your friends!

Got nothing to hide!
