Undirect - Chrome extension that removes Google redirect search result

Would you rather have Google track your visited pages, or allow your destination to know how you got there, personally identifying you?

Webmasters get aggregated data via Google analytics. If you're signed in to Google, they don't know your personal, individual referrer on landing on their site.

I guess the question is would you rather have hundreds of separate sites that you don't trust but who each only have a very small amount of data on you, or one site that you slightly trust but who has every data to build a complete profile of you.

Or would you like to be able to right click a link on a SERP and copy the actual URL.

Nice. I'm on a pretty decent connection but quite often google's redirection page takes forever to load.

For anyone struggling to install this: Download the .crx file to your computer, open chrome://extensions/ then drag the file to that page.

There is a chrome webstore link above that.

Woops, completely glossed over that.

One alternative is GSanitizer extension.

It's a useful extension to Chinese Google users.

Yup this is just what I've been looking for. Since Google regularly gets one-minute bans, I'm constantly having to give up on a search and switch to another search engine.
