This is great. It created a link to my personal site that Firefox blocked me from going to.

I'm not sure what the use case for this is, but I've been using it as a inefficient messaging service with my girlfriend, ie:

https://c1ic.link/campaign_WxjLdF_login_page_2.bat

You seem to be able to encode arbitrary text, so long as it follows [A-Za-z0-9]+\.[A-Za-z0-9]+

Fantastic! I miss the original ShadyURL.

I wouldn't call it a shortener, since most of the links it creates are longer than the originals.

What would be a good name here? A URL redirector?

For funsies I shortened https://creepylink.com

And got: https://c1ic.link/account_kPvfG7_download_now.bat

Yeah but have fun explaining yourself to the police when the author abandons the project and an actual scammer ends up buying up all those domains.

Saw this on relaunched Digg and figured HN would appreciate it.

This is fun. Is it not checking for previously submitted URLs though? I can seemingly re-submit the exact same URL and get a new link every time. I would expect this to fill the database unnecessarily but I have no idea how the backend works.
