When someone really loves you, they delete all that ridiculous querystring nonsense from the end of the hyperlink before sending it to you. 💘

best is to customise it with weird random stuff that put them on a watchlist
I’ve thought about making a personal browser extension that turns all querystring text to
“?source=your_mom”Edit: it’s a bookmarklet 🙃
I never understood why site authors don’t do it on page load after having run their analytics solution of choice. It’s just basic respect to site readers 🤷♂️
which does it for you
When someone pretends to love you, they send affiliate links.
@codinghorror@infosec.exchange Oh, and what does it mean when someone adds something to the query string?
wished my browser loved me
nah. Friends don’t let friends give more data to advertisers.
I love everyone by that standard
fwiw
or you’re just conscious of the person receiving the link’s privacy
