Wait 'til the author discovers that you can use ping (ICMP) to transfer data, too! :)

I would have used a minimal service worker to unpack the web data and present it as if it were just a normal page being loaded.

Honestly it didn't interest me, but I do remember from back in the days full websites rendered by a browser from... Empty files. https://mathiasbynens.be/notes/css-without-html

A neat improvement would be to make the decoder into a bookmarklet. This would avoid the overhead of serving the script. Of course you would rely on the user having the bookmarklet installed, but when you serve HTML you also rely on the user having a web browser installed.

Very cool. I wonder is it possible to make a simple game with also leveraging the webassembly?

Yes, probably. I guess, you’d need a bigger favicon since the minimal Rust WASM binary is around 20KB+ (?)

You might find my tinkering useful: https://strich.io/blog/posts/embedding-webassembly-in-qrcode... A QR code isn’t much different from a favicon I guess. :)

I personally won't do things this way, but this is really cool and I could see the applications already.
