描述

This is a kinda continuation of my previous comment here: https://github.com/JuliaDocs/Documenter.jl/issues/2159#issuecomment-1879633205 from #2159 .

It would be great if the generated HTML didn't send referrer URLs in headers, thus preventing the CDNs the default access to (very easily trackable) user page load stats by default. In turn, this would allow much better compliance with various privacy protection guidelines, incl. GDPR.

For the beginning, I think that just pasting a referrerpolicy="no-referrer" into all <link> tags that point to external CDNs would be more than sufficient. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/link#referrerpolicy for details there.

Thanks!

研究方向
The issue suggests adding referrerpolicy='no referrer' to all <link> tags that point to external CDNs. The main task is to locate where these link tags are generated in the Documenter.jl codebase, likely in the HTML template or generator code (e.g., src/Documenter/Builder.jl or similar). The contributor should also refer to the previous discussion linked in the issue for context. The change is straightforward and localized, requiring only adding the attribute to the relevant link elements.
