I've seen this tracking param when people shared with me some links, which they got from Fb.
There is a Firefox extension ClearURLs, which strips some tracking parameters from the url.
From what I remember, if you click in Fb on a link, it redirects first to an internal tracking url, and then to your final link. This is not limited to Fb only.
- JohnFen 7y agoYeah, this sort of thing is far from unique to Facebook, and is why it's been my practice for many years to never just click on a link. Instead, I copy it so I can strip out all of the unnecessary decorations and trackers before browsing to it.
