The tilde (~) means that path is located in the per-user home directory. The default behaviour is for user home directories to be only accessible by that specific user.
The encryption you're referring to is likely specific to Firefox Sync (i.e. syncing your FF settings, history, etc. across devices). Sync is end-to-end encrypted. But I'm not surprised that it's unencrypted on disk.
We can all agree that it's a tragedy that this animal died.
The other consideration is that polar bears are amongst the most relentless and vicious predators around. A polar bear around an inhabited area is very much a serious safety threat. Iceland doesn't have any animal predators and therefore also wouldn't have the trained people or equipment necessary to deal with neutralizing and relocating this bear.
I would have liked to have seen the animal safely moved. But I suspect there's more context to this story that we don't have beyond the headline.
The simple answer is yes.
It's possible to encode or tunnel anything over any protocol.
The next question is why isn't it done more?
http has basically become the defacto internet protocol for all media content. This has resulted in a lot of other protocols from becoming blocked due lack of support or due to firewall rules.
efficiency. http (and all the other protocols it runs atop) have become highly optimized for doing what it does. To layer something like http over another protocol, would certainly be possible but it would likely be slower, less responsive and lack a lot of the niceties that make http work as well as it does.
For the above reasons it's actually more common to see other protocols run on top of http. This is especially common to prevent blocking and censorship by making the traffic look like normal http traffic when it may actually be private messaging apps, file transfers, VPN, etc.
I went on a bit of a YouTube dive yesterday and found a performance or two of Raygun prior to the Olympics. I don't know much about breakdancing, but she seems legitimately talented. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kc1dlmWC76g
If you want to be able to trim off the ends, I suggest a double fisherman's instead (aka the double overhand stopper) with both strands (hold them together while you tie and treat them as a single strand).
With either knot, after you trim, you can melt the ends of the elastic cord. It will "mushroom" a bit, which will also prevent the tips from creeping into the knot and coming loose.

I like to recommend the episode(s) on John McAfee when people first start Bastards. They're wild and not nearly as dark/heavy as some episodes can be.

A flat overhand bend in the elastic cord is what I recommend: https://www.animatedknots.com/flat-overhand-bend-knot
Justification:
Simple, not bulky, reasonably secure against shaking loose, and relatively easy to untie.
As suggested in another comment, a double figure eight could be used as well. It will be more bulky and a bit less likely to come loose.
