Description Sidney Markowitz 2023-01-22 08:28:06 UTC
As mentioned in Bug 8101 comment 6 ml-trk.com shortened URLs have been observed to perform a redirect to the target URL by returning a location header (redirect) to /rd.html?go= and then the urlencoded form if the final target URL. For this to recognized as a redirect and properly followed, we would have to special case handling of those URLs.

This is a duplicate of bug 8110 and bug 8111 (fixing either one should fix this)

Since I can only pick one while closing this, I'll choose the simpler one to fix as more likely to be done.
