It works when doing a cat from a file, it looks more like an issue with the pipe mechanism. For example, this works, regardless of the size of the file:

    #!/bin/bash
    curl -s --compressed http://someurl.example.com/pubkeys/$1 >somefile
    cat somefile



I created a bash script that runs

     #!/bin/bash
     curl -s --compressed http://someurl.example.com/pubkeys/$1

this is terrifying.

Why? DNS hijacking, man in the middle attack? Risk when the web server is compromised (we are using S3 here)?
