Simple HTTP Request Header Demo

This repository contains a minimal Python HTTP server that logs basic request metadata (such as request headers and client address) received during standard HTTP communication.

Purpose

The code is intended for educational and academic demonstration only. It illustrates how HTTP request metadata is automatically exposed when a client connects to a server, and is used to support discussion on web data collection and privacy.

Usage

Run the server locally and access it from a browser on the same network to observe the request headers sent by the client.

You can run the server using the following command:

python server.py

Note

This project is not intended for production use or large-scale data collection.

About

This code is a demonstrative / educational example used to illustrate how HTTP request metadata is exposed during routine client–server communication.
