NYT vs wget: technologically illiterate Snowden coverage

I hope he didn’t really use (an unmodified) wget… every logged request using it leaves a red flag, even after you change the user agent and put in a delays between requests: it only makes HTTP/1.0 requests. It passes a Host header, and most servers will respond correctly to a host header with a 1.0 request, but I’ve occasionally had trouble using it with things that behave differently depending on the version request. cURL is better–unfortunately, I have every wget option memorized, and never can remember curl’s.
