I am using FF 64.0.2 in Win 10.

Recently I have noticed that when I right click on a link and choose "Copy link location" then go to paste the link the resulting link includes "http://hiderefer.com/?" at the beginning of the address that I copied. I do not care to have the hidereferer included in the pasted copy.

Can this be stopped?
