We’re working on a new anti-tracking feature: Bounce Tracking Protection. It works similar to the existing Cookie Purging feature in Firefox, but instead of a tracker list it relies on heuristics to detect bounce trackers.

It’s based on the navigational-tracking-protections spec draft in the PrivacyCG[1]
