I'm having a really hard time believing the scenario where a user follows a shortened link in a re-tweet, sees the bit.ly warming page, assumes that the original author is trying to spread malicious stuff (and that the re-tweeter, whom this user is following and supposedly trusts, is supporting this malicious stuff), and starts telling other people about how untrustworthy the original poster is.
