Thankfully, there's an official standard for using the internet with just carrier pigeons: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_over_Avian_Carriers
I can't believe they removed the photo of a dead pigeon captioned "An example of packet loss."
"...this technology suffers from extremely high latency."
and is probably prone to cat in the middle attacks ..
I'm thinking 3/4oz #8 birdshot is the zeroday attack.
But then please don't return to sender!
But it does work in an electrically challenged environment when the latency of the internet is infinite. But it can be hacked by 3/4oz #8 birdshot.
I have a suspicion most networking hardware would be affected by that
Time to expand the protocol with encryption
You know, pigeons probably do have relatively high latency but I bet a carrier pigeon could carry at least three SD cards, meaning a pigeon has hella bandwidth.
Truck bandwidth
Bandwidth is also impacted by distance though, across a school or town it would be incredibly high speed.
And high packet loss.
Tail latency with a swallow tail.
Brilliant
