Description
[//]: # (***You can delete or ignore strings starting with "[//]:" They will not be visible either way.)
***Description***: After clicking on any search result displayed by Google there seems to be a GET request to Google before it starts loading the webpage.
* **Current behaviour**: When clicked on a link such as: https://tr-tr.facebook.com/ it first makes a GET request to https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=2ahUKEwjb9Py0xKzjAhWMFMAKHe6iAMYQFjAAegQIBhAC&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftr-tr.facebook.com%2F&usg=AOvVaw1xWwTSqg3_5X67lB-gwH6- which is considered as a tracking request made to Google explained by EFF [here](https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2018/10/privacy-badger-now-fights-more-sneaky-google-tracking)
https://prnt.sc/odj78i
***Steps to reproduce the problem***:
1. Search for "Facebook" in Google (in Firefox)
2. Click on the result
3. Observe the requests being made
