The 401 message body? That has nothing to do with the original
problem. It’s another case of broken programming on the server
side, but a different one… sending a 401 first… might work after
you logged in once, if it stores that in cookies… who knows.

file(1) just reports it as “data”. No, they just don’t offer
the “compress” method normally; lynx can do more, like gopher.
