But are such avian-carrier users actually banned from Wikipedia 
edits?  If this protocol were actually to be implemented, then any 
packets sent by this means would be tagged with an originating IP 
address, like any other Internet packets, and it would then be up to 
Wikipedia policy to decide whether such IPs should be blocked due to 
the potential of avian-carrier-based vandalism.  No such policy 
exists now that I know of.
