I think its cool in the right application. I do, however, like to see where a link is going before I go there. I've had too many problems with this computer and don't need the aggravation.
On the other hand, I can typically tell which links I can trust based upon who is posting them.

I don't tweet, so I have no idea about that.

There could be a slightly less short URL shortener that includes the top level of the URL; so this page could, for example, become http://shorten.er/cellar.org.xqv

I don't know whether this would actually have any use, as hosts can be arbitrarily long.

I don't click links that don't show where I'm going, to many fucking assholes that think they're funny, but they're just a waste of time.

I'm too lazy and not-malicious to confirm this myself, but the cllr.me hash being so much shorter, and the community it serves being so much more narrow, it seems especially ripe for something like this:

TL;DR: short URLs produced by bit.ly, goo.gl, and similar services are so short that they can be scanned by brute force. Our scan discovered a large number of Microsoft OneDrive accounts with private documents. Many of these accounts are unlocked and allow anyone to inject malware that will be automatically downloaded to users’ devices. We also discovered many driving directions that reveal sensitive information for identifiable individuals, including their visits to specialized medical facilities, prisons, and adult establishments.

Like UT said, the cloud is just someone else's computer.

cllr.me had to go. It was being taken over by people looking to redirect for evil spammy/porny purposes.

Gravdigr 06-21-2016 12:09 PM

So long cllr.me, we hardly knew ye.

:blackr:

xoxoxoBruce 06-21-2016 12:18 PM

Hey now, you say porny purposes like it's a bad thing. :haha:

I think a lot of it was getting around Facebook bans on links from certain domain names. I didn't investigate it too far. But there were about 20000 links from two domains.
