Google Docs Link Defanger

Strip tracking URLs from exported Google Docs files (EPUB/HTML)

Drop your file here or click to browse
Supports EPUB and HTML files

What this does:

Removes Google's surveillance wrappers from links like:
https://www.google.com/url?q=REAL_URL&sa=D...

All processing happens in your browser. Your files never leave your computer.

For the "why", ref: this Mastodon thread.

NOTE: I never use these download/export formats and only tested it with ones that have basic URL in them. Please file an issue if it fails to defang one or more URLs. It will help triage if you can put those URLs into the issue.

While this is a self-contained HTML page and you can just save it and use it locally, the source is on Codeberg.
