locus of control.
i happen to agree w/ David here. there really is no serious technical
hurdle for moving a full-bore DNS IMR into most platforms these days
(modulo the RFIDs and some of the IoT stuff).
the upsides are huge for mobility, ad-hoc, and temporally disconnected
networks.
the downsides are the LEOS (protecting our security), and the Shylocks
who need to collect what remains of the lunch money.
