  Thanks for posting that. I find it odd that the URLs returned by the (test?) API[0] are bit.ly shortened. I'm generally not a fan of URL shorteners because I can't easily see where I'm headed, but it also seems that the government should have their own shortener URL if they're going to do that.

    It's strange especially, that the bit.ly allows you to check statistics without any form of restriction: https://bitly.com/1I7ipyR+ https://bitly.com/1I7ipyR+

    They do in fact have their own shortener (https://go.usa.gov/ https://go.usa.gov/)... but after abuse, they changed it to require a login so I'm guessing there was an issue hardcoding someone's login to let the API generate them?
