I too was puzzled by the term signed and unsigned URL.
But I have come across signed and unsigned integers.
An unsigned integer (such as uint64) can only take positive values and
zero, whereas a signed integer can also hold negative values.
So presumably an unsigned URL can only point to positive web sites, whereas
a signed URL can also point to
negative web sites such as malware, fake news, conspiracy theories etc.
Merry Xmas and happy new year to all the gophers here!
Wising everyone a much better 2021.
