Firmware remote vulnerability in Intel business products
Can I preview a bitlink before clicking on it? https://support.bitly.com/hc/en-us/articles/230650447-Can-I-preview-a-bitlin...
Yeah, but using bit.ly has other problems -- not least of which is they track the s*** out of them...
$ curl -so/dev/null -Iw'%{redirect_url}\n' http://bit.ly/2qyHCQn https://arstechnica.com/security/2017/05/intel-patches-remote-code-execution... Then browse to that link directly, which will bypass (some) of the tracking. If this is a common task for you, you can wrap it into a shell function or whatever. #!/bin/sh -e xdg-open "$(curl -so/dev/null -Iw'%{redirect_url}\n' "$1")"
