Stop link from sending referrer to destination

Question

I have a page where I don\'t want the outbound links to send a referrer so the destination site doesn\'t know where they came from.

I\'m guessing this isn\'t possibl

Answer 1

I was trying to figure this out too.

The solution I thought of was to use a data url to hide the actual page I am coming from.

Link

This link opens a page that only contains javascript to load a different page. In my testing no referrer is given to the final destination. I don't know what it could send as a referrer if it tried anyways, maybe the data url ? which wouldn't give away where you came from.

This works in Chrome. Chrome is my only concern for my current problem but for browsers that don't like javascript in pages that are data urls. You could probably try a meta refresh.
