This is a bugfix release:
"due to some privacy issues in default settings of Wget, we introduce
this bugfix release.
The --xattr option (saving original URL and Referer into extended file
attributes) was introduced and enabled by default since Wget 1.19.
It possibly saved - possibly unrecognized by the user - credentials,
access tokes etc that were included in the requested URL.
We changed three details as a countermeasure, see below in the NEWS section.
With Best Regards, Tim

* Changes in Wget 1.20.1
** --xattr is no longer default since it introduces privacy issues.
** --xattr saves the Referer as scheme/host/port,
user/pw/path/query/fragment
are no longer saved to prevent privacy issues.
** --xattr saves the Original URL without user/password to prevent
privacy issues."
