Twitter link doesn't work

There are a few query string parameters in the sample URL:

• t
• cn
• sig
• iid
• uid
• nid

With the exception of cn, all of these are required for the redirect to work.

Using the STR/Cases outlined via brave/brave-core#16968 (comment), ensured that loading the following URL within a new tab correctly loaded the Twitter page rather than displaying an error as per the following:

@LightColoredLines Twitter has been having lots of outages / problems lately (on their end). Try clearing your cookies and then accessing Twitter again.

@LightColoredLines Thanks for trying that. Would you mind filing a new GitHub issue so that we can investigate? It's unlikely to be related to this problem since you're running the version with our fix.
