I’ll have to double check and make sure but as far as I know the safari version of stylus doesn’t do this — it’s written and maintained by a totally different developer.

I’m planning to write my own Safari stylesheet extension some time in the coming months, though, because old style Safari extensions are being phased out in favor of Safari app extensions and I don’t know if the dev of the Safari stylish extension plans to make the leap.

Do you know the name of the extension in the Safari's addons store? I disabled Stylish the moment I read this article here but I have no replacement.

If you do write such an addon as you said, please advertise it here in HN!

Correction, in my previous reply I meant to say that the Safari version of Stylish (not stylus) has a different developer and doesn’t appear to share the Chrome/Firefox extension’s tracking issues.

The code for the safari version is available here: https://github.com/350d/stylish

With a quick glance it looks to include google analytics, but that’s only used on the extension’s settings page and doesn’t send browser history or anything like that. JS isn’t my forte, though, so if anybody else could take a look and confirm that’d be great.
