Best Viewed with telnet to port 80 is all about people screwing up standards.
Here's a good quote about the campaign from the website below:
"
Probably the most important reason for the Best Viewed with telnet to port 80 campaign is that it is time to realize what it means to disregard standards documents? when implementing popular protocols: it is an undercutting of the standard itself, such that if enough people attempt to use the implementation you have written which does not conform to the standard, then they will start to design against your bugs and/or shortcomings, and to employ features that are not specified in the standard (thus making the protocol you have implemented only partially compatible with the standard, which is the definition of the protocol.)"
