    MailChimp Trackers on local e-newsletter links

    I've been reading the digital version of our local independent newspaper for years but they've suddenly begun putting MailChimp Trackers onto use of all their "Continue reading" links, which upsets Ghostery and isn't as easy to get around as the warning page suggests.
    Apparently I can't just stick in a screenprint but this link may show what I've been getting after clicking on such a link: extension://fclbdkbhjlgkbpfldjodgjncejkkjcme/app/templates/blocked_redirect.html

    I don't care for my reading habits being tracked, let alone by MailChimp; on the other hand, I do like being able to read local news from this excellent source. What (if anything) can I do to achieve the latter without being stuck with the former? I've written to the publishers, in case they don't realise what's happening, but I hoped that someone here might have other ideas before they reply - if they ever reply!
