gollark: APIONET would run over GEORGEnet for this.
gollark: It could likely be run off SDRs or something, at great cost, or just be tunable in a few bands.
gollark: I suppose frequency-hopping GEORGEnet could probably be done.
gollark: For example, no encryption, no music and stuff too, I think the US limits you to 9600 baud (!!!) on some bands, and also you probably can't run tons of traffic over it or someone will be annoyed.
gollark: There are annoying constraints.
