No you're not missing anything, some malware even communicate via micro-messaging such as twitter nowadays, this is plain valid HTTP ! > I personally think the masking thing is pretty ugly.

Also the masking is optional in the protocol but defined as mandatory in clients. So some special applications might very well not implement it at all and some day it's very likely that we'll get rid of it by default, just like the web doesn't work well if you omit to post a Host header today.
