I love my Hey email because of this. they block tracking with no configuration. It's great!


"they block tracking"

They block some tracking. What percentage of tracking they block is anyones guess. 99.999%, 90%, 50%, 10% ? Who knows.

Also, they don't block targetted tracking, which would be used by a stalker for example. They only block widespread well known trackers.

Only way to be safe is to disable loading of all remote resources and don't click links.


I don't think they block link tracking clicks. I don't see how they could possibly do that.

(Unless they take what I've discovered and incorporate it into their system. Even then, it wouldn't be 100% coverage. Some tracking links, ie. Mailchimp, can't be avoided.)


Do they also block tracking of link clicks?
