Recommended action: Open the file with encoding='utf-8-sig' (strips an optional BOM, harmless when absent) or pass bytes to json.loads; fix the producer to write UTF-8 without BOM.
Option: Decode with utf-8-sig [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: Reading JSON files or HTTP bodies that may carry a UTF-8 BOM
Steps:
1. open(path, encoding='utf-8-sig') or json.loads(resp.content) (bytes)
Expected: BOM is stripped and parsing proceeds.
Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
