That's besides the point. If I'm passed on a short url, I need to trust that the link points somewhere safe, that all the link shortener does is return a Status Code 301 with the actual link, and if I open the short link again that it won't take me to a malicious site.
By design, this URL shortener service does neither, and to me it feels too risky to even consider opening a link.
But that's just me. I'm sure plenty of people will find this useful.
