[nycbug-talk] The Security Implications of URL Shortening Services

I post this because some people on this list (*ahem* George) love
tinyurl. I never understood why there's so much love for these
services. They introduce latency, obfuscate the target, and add a
layer of dependency: tinyurl, believe it or not, may go down!

Thoughts?
