Twitter run t.co so they know where the redirect goes without actually asking t.co. So they can preconnect to the target domain as well. And that's where they goofed up (I mean, apart from preconnecting to all these domains in the first place).



Ah I get it. I thought the preconnect was an attribute on the anchor tag, but it's not. Confusion resolved, thanks.
