Or more likely, a transparent or "forced" proxy, implemented by the
ISP upstream.

Yes, FTP would be the better choice to ensure file integrity. A decade

program file linked on web servers over HTTP telling them to "create a
FTP server" and that "the ftp protocol exists for a reason".

Of course all that effort fell on deaf ears... :)
