WFM with FF40 on Win 7, when I click on http://t.co/Ve65DlrlC1 FF40 redirects to https://blog.ahrefs.com/http-vs-https-for-seo/?utm_content=bufferfb5de&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer and the location bar displays https://blog.ahrefs.com/http-vs-https-for-seo/?utm_content=bufferfb5de&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer

Could you test with a fresh profile, please.
