PingBlock: Prevent Click Tracking and Remove "ping" Property from Links

PingBlock is a free Chrome add-on developed by pieterhielkema. It falls under the category of Browsers and specifically the subcategory of Add-ons & Tools.

This handy tool aims to prevent click tracking and remove the "ping" property from all links. Click tracking is a technique used by some websites to monitor user behavior and track the effectiveness of their links. By adding a "ping" attribute to a URL, websites can collect data on how users interact with their links. PingBlock ensures that this type of click tracking is blocked by removing the "ping" property from all links.

With PingBlock installed, you can browse the web with peace of mind, knowing that your clicks are not being tracked. This add-on provides an additional layer of privacy and security, allowing you to maintain control over your online activities.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
