This is explicitly a valid browser implementation of the ping attribute:https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/links.html#hyperlink-...> 2. Optionally, return. (For example, the user agent might wish to ignore any or all ping URLs in accordance with the user's expressed preferences.)The problem isn't that Firefox doesn't support the ping attribute, the problem is that Google fails to respect user requests not to track. parent hvdijk 5 years ago
