 Besides, they do send bogus requests!  Simply clicking any of those links
 above cause a bogus request to be sent, by any run-of-the-mill web

 Like I stated a few times before, those URIs you posted result in invalid
 requests that do not conform with the RFC's request line definition.
 That's the whole topic of this discussion.
