A technical standard walks into a bar, and somehow you're laughing at TCP/IP's interpersonal drama. This show takes three internet protocols and makes them into characters with actual personality friction, turning data packet handoffs into comedy that lands whether you know networking or not. By the end, you realize you've absorbed how the internet actually works without a single lecture slide.
Three internet protocols, drawn as characters, work together to complete a user's request to buy a video online. Each one passes packets of data along to the next, and the short shows how the request travels between them until the job is done. The single-episode ONA uses comedy with a sci-fi slant to make the hidden workings of an everyday online purchase easy to follow.
