gollark: Maybe, but it can have POST bodies.
gollark: - gpg is isomorphic to cryoapioform - it is already too late, as I just interfaced this with a JS engine and some HTML layouting stuff and am accessing my email through this; for now, I am using an SSH tunnel, but this is uncool, so security *is* required - additionally, normalizing protection of exactly which content you visit from eavesdroppers is good- it doesn't even have a Content-Length field- but I need to store arbitrarily large indices into metagollarious ultraspace
gollark: Where?
gollark: - lack of TLS, while ALL is to be utterly secured- no extensibility- what if I want to send 1025 bytes
