Twitter is one of the most popular micro-blogging website and we get numerous tweets posted on our timeline every minute. Many of them are short-links and we do not have an idea where they open to. People usually tweet several times per hour. However there are many privacy implications that you may apply like we can secure our Twitter account by using a strong password and changing other privacy settings, but what if someone posts maliciously linked tweets on your timeline. What if you click on those links with cheesy lines?
Safe Twiit helps you in weeding out the malicious links posted with the tweets on your timeline. With this tool you can moreover block the source of tweet posted on your timeline with some malicious links.
