I don’t click on shortened links (bitly etc).
• They’re #MysteryMeat links that hide the true destination. I want to know where I’m going. (Ideally I’d even like a preview.)
• Into what should be a simple hyperlink they add a redirect point that itself is targeted.
• Moar tracking.
• The redirect can go away at any time. There’s no guarantee these services will always be there.
