[FYI] Bugzilla issue suggesting core Firefox Tracking Protection should protect from URL/queryparam-based tracking

[ronjouch]

Hi, ClearURLs users and contributors.

Just a "FYI" issue to publicize that I created Firefox Bug 1697982 - Firefox Tracking Protection should protect against URL/queryparam-based tracking (like addons ClearURLs/NeatURL do), which suggests the protection offered by addons like this one should be baked in Firefox.

• It was received positively by Mozilla folks, who acknowledge the rationale.
• No promises yet, but it's "on [their] radar & roadmap".
• Please complement with extra information that may help Mozilla understand / analyze / scope this better.
• Please refrain from noise-only "Me too" / "+1" comments. Use Bugzilla's Vote/Follow features if you don't have anything to add.

@ authors / maintainers: not expecting you keep this "bug" open, of course. Feel free to close now or anytime in the future. Thanks for your work 🙂.

And please do do that - I suspect it being built into FF is the most likely way this functionality is going to get into FF for Android.
