You upgraded grep.  This is an intentional change in behavior in the
newest grep.  Work around it by using 'grep -a' or 'LC_ALL=3DC grep'.

Basically, the POSIX definition of a binary file includes any file that
is encoded incorrectly for the current locale, and since your current
locale is (probably) UTF-8 encoding, any file (such as note.html) that
assumes some other encoding (probably Latin-1 8-bit encoding) will be
treated as binary unless you request -a or change locales.
