However, nobody has addressed the core of the question, which was neither about the specifics of url-retrieve nor about quoting lambdas :) Rather, it was about https servers breaking connections. So, let me try to rephrase it in simpler terms using EWW, the Emacs Web Wrowser. (eww "https://theconversation.com/global") displays a web page rendered as text, as expected. (eww "https://wikipedia.org/") displays briefly "Loading https://wikipedia.org/", then the buffer is emptied, indicating that the server has closed the connection. Is it the same for you? Is it the same with different emacs versions? I am running 26.1 on Debian. If it's just me, I'll try to find what's wrong with my installation. If it's more general, I'll file a bug report. Thanks, Nicolas
