Currently Privacy Badger will de-mangle Google-mangled links in their search results. You can see it discussed in this episode of Security Now! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suT0E53jX40 Here are the show notes (ctrl+f for "badger" and you'll have all the information you need): https://www.grc.com/sn/SN-945-Notes.pdf

I wasn't using it until I saw this so I installed it despite using uBlock Origin.
