Public bug reported: To reproduce:
1. Attempt to paste non-unicode data with a pipe: cat ~/.config/pulse/cookie | pastebinit Result: Python throwsa Unicode error. Expected result: It should work, as it does if you run: pastebinit ~/.config/pulse/cookie Impact: If a program outputs even one invalid ascii/unicode character, the paste will fail. This is a common problem when porting python 2 apps to python 3.
