But default is putting your cursor in the address bar and hitting ctrl-c. How would Firefox clean it like that?
If it removes the tracking from the link before the page loads, it could work. So it would already be clean when you copy it.
On android anyway, that's an interceptable action, and you can also monitor and alter the clipboard.
So they could either alter what gets copied before its copied, or scan the copied item after it'd copied and alter it.
It doesn't.
If you think about it though, you've already visited that link so why clean it now.
So the person you send it to gets a clean link
