It appears to add fewer than other browsers, but I’m not quite sure why it adds “?channel=fenc&client=firefox-b-1-d” to searches when only the q/query parameter is needed for them to work.
I’m curious about this too. Are you using the “Strict” mode for the tracking protection in the settings?
I am not at the moment, maybe I should try that.
?channel=fenc&client=firefox-b-1-d”
where exactly do you see that?
edit:
now i see, i only have the
client=parameter not thechannel=related:
Thanks!
Update: I have figured out how to remove the client parameter, though I’m still not sure why the channel parameter is there. Any idea what that’s about?
As far as I know, these parameters are added by Google.
They are part of the built-in search URL for Google:
I don’t know why channel shows as “fenc”, though; I have no idea where that is coming from.
