Block Email tracking

Please implement something similar to PixelBlock or UgleEmail in brave shields. I have noticed that Brave does not block email trackers, and would like to see this implimented

We actually do block email tracking by default. If there is a mailing list you’re seeing tracking pixels let me know.

streak still works even with brave

same with mailspring, marketo, salesforce, mailchimp, and sendgrid

The less extensions needed the better, also avoid potential false positives.
