Currently not logged in users are only allowed to see pages for single tweets. They are not allowed to see profile pages for example. I'm not allowed to access https://twitter.com/jeg2. And scripts aren't allow to access anything. curl -I on a valid tweet URL always returns 403. Thus Twitter is no longer appropriate to use as sources for anything.

Twitter links are also blocking https://github.com/exercism/problem-specifications/pull/2294

All the http instead of https are intentional - those are old websites that do not use SSL.
