    What about IPoverFish?

    Edit: IP-over-swimming-carrier maybe better. Let’s get an RFC ready before next April 1st

      Whales would allow for the greatest throughput, and are technically not fish, so “swimming carrier” works. Plus, another good reason to lean on the few nations that still allow whaling to stop: “Don’t kill those, you’ll break the Internet!!1!”

      The problem with the RFC will be equalling the tongue-in-cheek silliness of 1149 and its extensions. I expect there to be a large section on “encapsulation concerns” (in other words, waterproofing).

        We could also solve the problem of scientific missions not being able to tweet while they are exploring the deep sea!
