Yes, my entire network only has an average of 5 queries/minute, and about 10-12 when I'm active. Typical peak for working might be 40, then a sharp spike I can see exactly when I loaded up nostr for the first time.

Like a noise protocol for dns XD I suppose it _could_ work. Really it's about the fact that the "automatic" normie internet systems are infected and designed to spy by default.
