This command makes a request to relay.8333.space:8882 with a profile key; it is up to the server to decide if they actually want to serve the real content; they can just swap it out for something they run themselves (pretty much how pi-hole works by swapping DNS of ad agencies to trash), and the certs are self-signed.

You would never know if what you see is actually coming from your own host or has been altered.
