Uh, no shit. State backed espionage groups are targeting the communications channels used by their primary targets. What are you going to tell me next? That water is wet and fire is hot? If the US government started using IP over Avian Carrier (RFC1149) you can bet that the GRU would start up a program to intercept the carriers.
It’s not a surprise Russia and friends are attacking the platform; it’s surprising the Whitehouse is using it for official communications. (or at least it would be, if the WH wasn’t occupied by nazi tech bros…)
🤔 I wonder how much data a single bird could feasibly carry. Quite a bit more than when this standard was first thought up I’m sure. You can get some incredibly high capacity sd cards now.

I imagine it’s quite a lot. You already brought up high-capacity SD cards, so at that point it’s figuring out how much weight the bird can carry in terms of 1TB SD cards or similar.

Additionally, they’re likely using it on their personal, insecure phones, on insecure networks.
There’s whole layers of security being bypassed here.
It’s a pretty good endorsement of the app!
Honestly, yeah. IIRC, the Swedish military also advised using it.
IPoAC. The ping is pretty slow, but the packet size is incredible

African or European swallow?

Pretty much every time there have been head to head competitions between birds and wires, the birds have won.
The birds stand on the wires to mock their inferior bandwidth
Yeah, it’s not the bandwidth that’s the problem, it’s the ping.
Well, ping and packet loss.
I’d assume range too. Hard to go across the ocean by pigeon.
Its not a question of where it could grasp the data, it’s a question of weight ratios
