I'd guess the use case would be someone trying to send files through a network that's mostly locked down (think: corporate network using a transparent proxy for HTTP, etc), but allows outgoing DNS traffic.
- userbinator 13y agoBeen there, done that. A lot of public WiFi hotspots will allow outgoing (and incoming) DNS, by design. It's unbearably slow (especially when you use SSL over it, which I'd consider almost mandatory if you do this) for anything other than email and maybe running a few shell commands, however. Applying additional obfuscation/whitening to the data stream to make it harder to detect makes it even slower.
