I Know the Shortened URLs You Clicked on Twitter
Public click analytics from goo.gl and bit.ly are correlated with Twitter metadata - the source field of a tweet, the profile location - to tell whether a named user clicked a given link, without touching the victim. Monitoring accounts followed everyone the target follows, tracking over 55,000 shortened URLs. Simulated precision averaged 0.94.
