I don’t think that should be a core lemmy feature, to be dependent on a list of query parameters that need to be kept up to date, but it would be a perfect use case for a plugin, which could call out to a database/script/file of known trackers and their domains, and throw up a warning like you’re saying.
Not trying to demoralize you, actually the exact opposite, this would be a great project for you if you already have a list! If you built a plugin that could do that for Lemmy I would be one of the first instances to install it!

Tbh 5 or so parameters take care of 80% of cases. I’m not conversant enough with lemmy implementation to know the difference between core and non core features but it has to be on the server side because there are too many clients.

plugins are server side
