Google/Yandex search link fix

This extension prevents Google and Yandex search pages from modifying search result links when you click them. This is useful when copying links but it also helps privacy by preventing the search engines from recording your clicks.

Google and Yandex search pages have the annoying habit of changing the result link when you click it. So if you right-click the link in order to copy it you get some gibberish instead of what you wanted. This extension disables that behavior – on any Google or Yandex domain, without having to configure anything. Simply install and enjoy! As an added bonus, the search engine can no longer track your clicks.

Known limitations

This extension cannot recover links after they have been modified. This means that it doesn’t work on Google Search if JavaScript is disabled — Google will produce modified links from the start rather than changing them when you click the link.
