Removing the External Link Icon Globally

Hello,
 
Is there any way to remove the icon that is now showing up next to all external links in Canvas, since it was updated within the 9-28-22 release? The icon is showing up on the links on Canvas login page too.
 
We have tried a few things, as suggested by other members here on Canvas Community, including:
 
.ui-icon-extlink {display:none}
and
 
a.external {display: none;}
 
None of these are working.
 
Please advise. Many thanks!

<a class="external" href="https://bit.ly/IO561Su2" target="_blank">...
