"I was gonna go to this site I found on Google, but then I saw that it
was corrupted, so I figured it musta been a security issue or

As for "text/html", it's just another string of technical jargon added
by those crazy Google guys.  Wonder what it means?

Perhaps you feel I'm exaggerating; in that case, go and ask any
non–computer savvy friends or relatives what it means if the HTML on a
page is corrupted.
