I watched a whole video on someone storing data as in-flight ping packets to the highest latency servers they could find. I don’t think we’re lacking in creativity at least.

That’s really cool. That was the 90s wasn’t it? I think I remember reading something about that in 2600. Cool though it may be, it’s just the same delay-line memory, but using the Internet as a medium rather than a drum of mercury. Which echoes what I was saying. I agree with you that creativity is not lacking now. I was just musing on how it’s mostly mapped off the map now rather than the territory.

You can also use birds as a storage medium. flowingdata.com/…/storing-png-image-data-in-a-bir…
