As a general rule, I will never click a link unless it clearly states where it’s taking me. Except I needed to see what the error meant, so I clicked open on it. Yay interstitial ads! 😠

    BTW, with bitly at least, you can add a + to the end and you can see the destination before you choose to visit.

      This is good to know, but bit . ly already got your precious data at that point.

      Browsers can also be configured to do this by default - or possibly only for bit . ly with some addon.
