I find it insane that everybody is seemingly okay with the fact that websites get to know what a user was browsing before landing on their site. And that there's no straightforward way to disable this behavior without the use of extensions.

Highly recommend installing https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/smart-referer

[usr1106]

Hmm, the addon description says "has been largely superseeded by better browser defaults"

[freeCandy]

huh, no idea why it would say that, the only sane default is when referrer is not leaked to websites at all.
