I like having TLS in my browser

it sure is possible, but not with the amount of work anyone would be willing to put into it.

you can just turn it off, see https://help.kagi.com/kagi/settings/general.html

true, my comment was primarily from the perspective of the recipient of tracking links

for our admin team, we’re using a bot to message a matrix room when content is reported and reacting to the message when it’s been handled.

this could be done pretty much the same way on mod level, though this is certainly not easily accessible to everyone due to the hosting involved.

and all of this is only relevant if you even receive reports about content in the first place. if you moderate a community on another instance, tough luck unfortunately, as they currently do not federate.

edit: typos

I haven’t checked how reddit does this but just from the example it seems like there is no anti tracking from the use of urlcheck that you’re describing.

reddit appears to generate tracking link with a specific numeric identifier in their database, so instead of attaching a bunch of removable url parameters they instead do a lookup in their database and then redirect to the original destination.

this also means your app checking the redirect will need to fetch the url to determine the destination, which means their tracking still works just fine.

edit: a word

indeed, original source is the wrong term, but at least it's an english derivation of it, which was only copied by the link in this post

it is indeed somewhat attributed, but it still very much looks like scraped content.

a very strong indicator is the inclusion of

Email address

at the end, which on cointelegraph's page is separate from the content and provides a sign-up form.

why is this a blog spam article badly copied from the original source at https://cointelegraph.com/magazine/china-dev-fined-salary-vpn-10m-ecny-airdrop-asia-express/ ?
