You seem to be connecting something which is not an HTTP client to an
HTTP server.  So the HTTP server complains because what is being sent
to it is not an HTTP request.

There's your HTTP server.

And there's your client - something which isn't going to send HTTP
requests to the server it connects to.

So a 400 response is precisely what you should expect here. :)
