Short links without long-lived tracking

Links

Make a compact link whose destination is understandable and whose click is not the start of a behavioral profile.

For publishers, organizers, and ordinary people who need a memorable URL without covert analytics.

Current availability

Redirect and expiration primitives exist. There is no public interface, gateway connection, or operational abuse process.

Incubating

A smaller path from intent to outcome.

  1. 01

    Reveal the destination

    A preview should make the next hop legible before someone follows it.

  2. 02

    Expire on purpose

    Temporary links can stop working when their job is done.

  3. 03

    Skip behavioral analytics

    Basic operational counts do not need to become cross-site tracking.

What is real now—and what still has to be earned.

The badge names this product’s place in the portfolio, not public availability. This record separates working parts from missing product proof.

In the code today

  • A compact Rust short-link service
  • Create, resolve, expiration, and basic analytics primitives
  • A no-tracking product contract

Before broader release

  • A public UI and gateway connection
  • Phishing, abuse-reporting, preview, and takedown operations

Links is deliberately small, but safe public operation requires more than a redirect endpoint.
