There are 'transparent' proxies which will untar archives and then
retar them, resulting in a file that fails signature verification even
though the contents are identical. When you then repeat the download,
the proxy knows it has previously inspected the file, and thus lets
through the original. Using https solves this issue 99% of the time.
If youʼre using https already, then Iʼm out of ideas :-)
