Smart Referer: Disable Referral Links Except On The Same Domain


When you click on links on a webpage to be taken to a new website, your destination website is told which site you came from. This information is used to serve you custom webpages or articles based on the site you were previously on. This can compromise your internet privacy and served you biased content. Here to help prevent this is a tool called Smart Referer.

Smart Referer is a free to use browser tool that helps disable referral links. The tool comes as a browser add-on for Mozilla Firefox. When you install the add-on, all referral links are disabled except for the ones that are on the same domain as your destination website. This simple action helps protect your online anonymity.

Features:

  • A user-friendly browser tool.
  • Compatible with Mozilla Firefox.
  • Blocks referral links.
  • Allows same-domain referral links.
