I am not the author. I was just so tired of having to manually strip crap like "?utm_term=.b1e20fe33a88" from the end of URLs before sharing them. This extension solves that problem nicely.
I wonder why Google doesn't build something into Chrome that just hides this crap from the visible URL? I guess they could get some PR pushback from paranoids if they did that though. Better to just hide behind some fictitious UTM Inc.

- Ajedi32 8y agoI think the share UI in Chrome mobile already strips that data, provided the site you're on defines a canonical URL in a link tag.
- amelius 8y agoI want my browser to strip UTM from links when I follow them, not just when I share them.
- madeofpalk 8y agoWhy? Just install a blocker extension to stop all of these analytics and tracking solutions, rather than fairly benign UTM tags.
- MightySCollins 8y agoThe site you visit can still use that information with an ad blocker.
