  • You're referring to data validation and filtering, if I'm not mistaken, to ensure that the data received from an API via a GET request is safe and reliable.

    @camarie can provide more information on this.

    I'm not sure what is the question here. The response of a HTTP request, email body etc. can be filtered, sure, although I am not sure how this affects various HTTP headers. One can assume nothing, though, and check the various returned data (Content-length, Content-type etc.) in order to be sure the response is correct (or not) and proceed accordingly.
