Well, neither is String as used in the code I responded to. I'm not
intimately familiar with JSON, but I believe ByteStrings would work on
UTF-8 input, and both ByteString and String would fail on UTF-16 and
UTF-32.
ByteStrings can handle Unicode just fine, provided the right
(de)serialization tools:
