gollark: So you probably need checksums now and you use up even more of the packet size.
gollark: And you also need to be able to autodetect properties of the system of DNS servers between you and the authoritative one doing the actual bridging. But that might randomly change (e.g. if you switch network) and start messing up your data.
gollark: But you also want to be able to send data up efficiently, but you're probably using much of the limited space for user data which won't get munged by recursive DNS/proxies/whatever on the session token and whatever, so now you have to deal with *that*.
gollark: Possibly? You apply somewhere.
gollark: Basically, send one query to get a session token of some sort, and then repeatedly send queries involving that to get the remaining data. But DNS doesn't guarantee message ordering, obviously, so you need to have sequence numbers and reassemble somewhere and ask for retransmits and all that.
