When I retrieve a file via FTP, HTTP, etc. the time stamp of that file on

Unless, of course, both systems are running TOPS-20 and thus use that
wonderful XTP mode that copies file metadata. Now, if you want to mandate
that all UNIX and Windows systems be replaced with TOPS-20, I might
support that... :-)
Actually some ftp and http transfer programs, incl wget and ncftp keep
the original date stamp.
