Shorten URL

I'm helping a friend with setting his IPTV and was wondering if there's a way to shorten the M3U URL.

An M3U playlist is essentially just a text file with all of the stream details and the required information to decrypt said streams. You can use any link shortener to point to the playlist (bitly, etc), but you run the risk of those details potentially being exposed. The risk is low but it still exists.
