View submission: Reddit will soon start logging which outbound links a user clicks on

I guess it's time to get used to right-clicking links to copy them - and then probably edit them to get rid of the Reddit tracking crap, if they alter the URL like Google does for its top results. :/

According to this post[1], right-click & copy should give you the destination URL and not the outbound click link. Apparently the admins don't like Google links either.

At this point, wouldn't it be easier to just leave reddit? We have alternatives, so why not use them? If reddit doesn't have our best interests in mind, fuck them.
