If you're concerned about referers, I recommend installing Referer Modifier and setting it to remove cross-hostname referers by default.

I've been using it for years and only had to add about 20 exceptions, like:

----

target: imgur.com

origin: -

action: replace

replacement: https://imgur.com/

----

target: amd.com

origin: -

action: target

----

target: google(\w+)?.com$

origin: google.com

action: prune
