Firefox has updated to version 120.0 and in the release notes you can read everything that has been added or changed. Among the new features that stand out the most are those relating to the privacy of browser users. Users are now able to eliminate tracking parameters that can sometimes be found at the end of a URL that is copied. A novelty that may seem of little importance given that in fact it concerns only the moment in which a link is copied after it has been generated to perhaps be pasted or shared. And it is a novelty that obviously increases the level of privacy that users who use Firefox can have. The innovation is also combined with the possibility of activating the Global Privacy Control which automatically sends a note to the websites that are visited stating that the user does not want their data to be sold or shared and therefore sends a "do not track " request .
