Безопасен ли shar.es?

Eigentlich "nur" ein URL-Shortener, leider wird er zunehmen genutzt um damit dubiose Seiten, Pornoseiten, Ponzis, mit Viren, Maleware etc. infizierte etc. zu bewerben bwz. auf diese zu locken. Daher - wenn nicht sofort erkennbar ist wohin der Link führt: Auf keinen Fall klicken!

shar.es is part of ShareThis as a url shortening service. However like ANY url shortening service it is abused by spammers as well as used for good purposes (example of a good purpose is this awareness event: http://shar.es/vP5xm). When reporting please report where the link is bringing you to. Don't want to actually go to the link and are only reporting the link as found in your email? Use this service to tell you where it is leading to: *****

As proof of the true nature of this site; the following spam message (including spelling mistakes) was sent to me today: I!'m ;forwarding you an eCard so you'll unders'tand how extr.aordin!ary you are to me.: O!pen; the eCard Now: http://shar.es/rPJXS

The url is a ShareThis url that links to the sites real url for an article. Never had spam from this site. It appears some may not agree with the political discourse but that does not make it untrustworthy, unreliable or in breach of privacy nor be unsafe for a child.
