Yes, a Pigeon is Faster for Data Transfer than Gigabit Fiber Internet::A decade ago, a pigeon with a 4 GB memory stick outran an ISP’s ADSL service. A 2023 rematch features a bird with 3 TB of flash drives vs gigabit internet.

      This is why you use TCP: Trusted Concurrent Pigeons.

      Trusted Pigeons so that a simple hash check can prove the veracity of your data AND provide a free dedupe / data integrity check for when multiple/single packets arrive.

      Concurrent Pigeons so that transmission issues don’t impact latency (throughput is essentially unlimited here, assuming sufficient pigeons)

      Downsides include needing to implement a pigeon cache and power (birdfood) requirement increases.

        You forgot about the interference (bird shit) it’ll cause with other things throughout the data highway
