About this extension
This extension works on top of the Google search results page. The basic idea is to eliminate the extra hop between clicking on a Google Search result item and loading the desired page. When you are not using this extension, you will see on the monitor tab (developer tools) that Google sends you to a "google.com/url" page and then to the website you requested.
Behind the scenes, there are two positive side effects: more privacy (avoiding a tracker, google.com/url) and a faster browsing experience (fewer requests to load a page).
