To enable its features, it's essential to grant permission in Safari settings, allowing the extension to read and alter webpages for all websites. * Why we should remove google’s redirection: Google's Click Tracking secretly monitors which URLs users click to enhance search technology, customize content, and improve advertising.

Users remain unaware of the redirection, as Google reformats the destination URL through its servers.
