Web Compatibility Support • Re: Paypal.com Stuck at Security Check

Ok, but why the heck should any website know our previously visited website, i.e. where we come from? I mean, isn't that kind of significant, privacy-wise?

Most of these extensions have an option to "ignore same domain requests" i.e. don't interfere in that scenario which indeed is a sane default and keeps breakage to a minimum. And referer-related breakage isn't really that widespread. Surely the privacy benefit is greater, or am I missing something?
