No need to remove the URL tracking parameters manually. 🥳

Blanket-removing the query string would break many real links, so I'd imagine it's more nuanced than that.

I really hope they're not sending the URL anywhere..

I don't see why they should send the URL somewhere. For Googley reasons, most tracking parameters start with "utm_". You can remove those pretty naïvely, generally without links breaking.
