Automatically strips tracking parameters (utm_*, fbclid, gclid, etc.) from URLs without reloading the page. # LinkSanitizer — Chrome Extension A lightweight, high-performance Manifest V3 Chrome extension that automatically strips tracking parameters from URLs **before** the page loads — protecting your privacy silently in the background. Designed with a sleek, minimalist dark UI, LinkSanitizer blocks analytics, social media, and advertising trackers in real-time, keeping your browsing fast and clean. --- ## ✨ Key Features * **Real-Time Sanitization:** Instantly intercepts and purges URLs before the browser requests the page. * **Global Counter & Icon Badge:** Live activation counter showing exactly how many tracking parameters have been stripped. * **User-Customizable Allowlist:** Easily whitelist specific domains (e.g., `amazon.it`, `ebay.it`) directly from the popup if you need tracking active for specific sites. * **Master On/Off Toggle:** Pause and resume the extension globally with a single click, featuring a responsive color-coded visual indicator (Green for Active, Red for Paused). * **100% Local & Private:** No data is ever sent to external servers. All settings and counts are kept strictly on your machine via `chrome.storage.local`. --- ## 🛡️ Supported Tracking Parameters LinkSanitizer automatically detects and removes a comprehensive list of tracking tokens, including: | Parameter | Source / Platform | |-----------|-------------------| | `utm_source`, `utm_medium`, `utm_campaign`, `utm_term`, `utm_content` | Google Analytics / UTM | | `fbclid` | Facebook / Meta | | `gclid`, `gclsrc`, `dclid`, `gbraid`, `wbraid` | Google Ads & iOS Privacy Bypass | | `msclkid` | Microsoft Ads / Bing | | `twclid` | Twitter / X | | `igshid` | Instagram | | `mc_eid`, `mc_cid` | Mailchimp Campaigns | | `_ga`, `_gl` | Google Analytics Linkers | | `zanpid`, `yclid` | Zanox Affiliates, Yandex | --- ## 📂 Project Architecture ```text link-sanitizer/ ├── manifest.json — Extension configuration (MV3 permissions & icons configuration) ├── background.js — Service worker: background link interception & synchronization logic ├── content.js — Content script: handles instant client-side URL updates ├── popup.html — Responsive popup interface ├── popup.css — Custom minimalist dark-theme stylesheet ├── popup.js — Live counter rendering, toggle management & allowlist sync └── icons/ — Cyberpunk official identity artwork ├── icon16.png (Toolbar icon) ├── icon48.png (Extensions management page icon) └── icon128.png (Chrome Web Store display icon) ```
