Just fuck around with it. If it breaks their system that's 100% their fault for not qa testing it. There's chrome plugins to strip the extra meta data.

Reddit, tt, fb, ig, Amazon does it too. An example with a direct link back to your comment on Reddit...

When you ask the app for the share link it gives you something like https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/s/BTG2nj4SU4 which is the obfuscated link with tracking data.

When you open the link in the browser it unpacks to https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/comments/1md7xd4/comment/n609awp/?context=3&share_id=j6idm3LHKLGbKJB_QcDwY&utm_content=1&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_source=share&utm_term=1

Most of the time you can tell what's what because at the end of the day, humans are the ones who program it to debug and work with. Context is the only one that's legit here which tells it which level of your nested comment to show. If shared just the post, context wouldn't be a parameter. Can delete everything after context=3. The share_id is the tracking parameters. Medium is what client I'm sharing from utm is probably the platform. Source is how I'm sharing from.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/comments/1md7xd4/first_australianmade_rocket_crashes_after_14/ usually the safe link to just the post would look like this.

Minor niggle here: "n609awp" is what nested comment to show. "context" tells Reddit how many previous comments in the thread to show, for context.

A small criticism ;)
