Lately I’ve noticed some mainstream sites injection tracking links into literally every link on their site.
When I hover over it, it shows the correct link at the bottom of my browser, but if I click it or copy it, it takes me to a hijacked tracker link.
Then I can’t even get the original link without having my activity tracked.
How do I get the original link that appears at the bottom of my browser?
That sounds more like malware then. Links from Twitter shouldn’t have any Facebook tracking info.
Check your browser for any extensions that you don’t recognise, and if you’re on Windows, download and run the free version of Malwarebytes.

So this isn’t Facebook on every occasion then, it’s related to the site you’re visiting? If so, the extension will hopefully fix it :)

no, links from Twitter are instead automatically converted to a t.co URL.
