In the presence of peroxide, HCl and HI do not give anti-Markownikoff's addition of alkenes because:
Anti-Markownikoff addition is possible only in case of HBr and not in HCl and HI. In HBr, both the chain initiation and propagation steps are exothermic, while in HCl, first step is exothermic, and second step is endothermic. In HI, the first step is heavily endothermic, and the second step is exothermic. Hence HCl and HI do not undergo anti-Markownikoff’s addition.
