Yea, I run wireguard & OpenVPN on port53 (different VPS) just in case it works. Unfortunately my experience with the "pay to use" WiFi so far has been they validate that port 53 is valid DNS traffic, and often don't allow arbitrary resolvers (e.g. `dig example.com @1.1.1.1` will not work)

You can use iodine and do a delegation from a real domain: It encodes packets in subdomains of your domain (and decodes them with a special DNS server). It is not fast.

I like to use SNI with e.g. pagead2.googlesyndication.com and www.googletagmanager.com because a lot of captive portals put ads on them, and I it on a google cloud instance since they own the IP.

I've gotten this to work, but it's just so slow that it's not worth it.

Those are great domains for this kinda thing! Thanks for the idea
