Another point, as I see this done on Dreamwidth, as well: when you post a tracked link a lot of us who can read URL tracking can just look at the tracked URL and see a) where it came from, like which website, b) if it was sent to your email, c) if it was from a newsletter you read, etc. This is an invasion of privacy many DWers don't suspect they're perpetuating upon themselves, so yeah, it pays to trim those links.
