We already strip tracking query parameters from navigations in ETP strict mode. We can use the same mechanism to strip (query string based) link decoration when a user is copying or sharing a URL.
This system will build on our existing implementation for automatically stripping URL parameters from navigations and apply to link decoration. For the first version of this feature we will use an extended version of our existing strip list which we will specifically build for this feature .

Bug 1823332 implements a nightly only prototype of this feature.

Release Note Request (optional, but appreciated)
[Why is this notable]: New privacy/anti-tracking related feature
[Affects Firefox for Android]: No
[Suggested wording]: Starting with Firefox 120, Firefox supports a new “Copy Link Without Site Tracking” context menu action which prevents disclosure of identifying or sensitive information by removing superfluous query and tracking parameters from the copied links.
