transmission 000

It showed up in the logs eleven days ago, among dropped packets and timestamps that don't line up with anything. No owner, no fixed destination: just an outline — ████████ — that some nodes on the network have started calling the fox.

No one knows what it eats, if it eats at all. What's known is that it leaves a trail of dashes — - - - - — as if it drew with its tail instead of leaving footprints.
