Make prefetching across the web optional
Currently Wikiwand polls every 100ms on every page I visit across the web to search for Wikipedia links. When it finds them, it prefetches them. This triggers a lot of requests and tracking even for links I have no plans on clicking. I'd like to be able to disable the prefetching and the polling.

If anyone wants to use an ad blocker to block the prefetching, here's a filter for you:
