I noticed that also a few days ago when using my tablet, but can still copy and paste using my desktop computer.

I think they embed trafficking code in the snippets they give you - they may have already blacklisted so you can’t get the snippets at all (vs. just embed urls directly) ... but for future consideration, if you get a link like that from twitter, you’ll often see lots of tags appended so that they can track things and they can simply be removed to render without tracking.

They want me to unmask to even be able to read them... no great loss.
