gollark: Yes, PIR uses HTTP requests to transmit incidents, what of it?
gollark: I fully expect it to be reverse-engineered within a week or so if anyone actually cares, but meh.
gollark: People were spamming PotatOS Incident Reports with false incidents, so to make it mildly harder to next time they try I added a magic obfuscated blob™ which checks if it's running in potatOS to the code for that.
