How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T2260228 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

-
A.
Multiplexed Application Substrate over QUIC Encryption
Multiplexed Application Substrate over QUIC Encryption (MASQUE) is an IETF protocol framework that enables tunneling and multiplexing of multiple network flows, such as HTTP and VPN-like traffic, over a single QUIC connection to improve privacy and performance.
-
B.
QUIC
QUIC is a modern, multiplexed transport protocol developed by Google and standardized by the IETF that runs over UDP to provide faster, more secure, and reliable web connections than traditional TCP-based HTTPS.
-
C.
DNS over QUIC (DoQ)
DNS over QUIC (DoQ) is a modern DNS transport protocol that uses the QUIC encrypted, multiplexed UDP-based transport to provide faster, more secure, and more reliable DNS queries than traditional methods.
-
D.
IETF QUIC Working Group
The IETF QUIC Working Group is a standards body within the Internet Engineering Task Force responsible for developing and maintaining the QUIC transport protocol and related technologies used by modern web protocols like HTTP/3.
-
E.
QUIC TLS usage specification
The QUIC TLS usage specification is an IETF document that defines how the QUIC transport protocol integrates and uses TLS for secure, encrypted internet communication.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.

How these facts were elicited
The pipeline generated the facts above by prompting gpt-5.1 with this entity's name + description and the instruction below.
Instruction
You are a knowledge base construction expert. Given a subject entity and a description of it, return factual statements that you know for the subject as a JSON list of dictionaries(triples), where keys must be "subject", "predicate" and "object". The number of facts may be very high, between 25 to 50 or more, for very popular subjects. For less popular subjects, the number of facts can be very low, like 5 or 10. # Requirements - If you don't know the subject at all, return an empty list. - If the subject is not a named entity, return an empty list. - Include at least one triple where predicate is "instanceOf". - Do not get too wordy. - Separate several objects into multiple triples with one object.
Input
Subject: QUIC Loss Detection and Congestion Control Description of subject: QUIC Loss Detection and Congestion Control is an IETF specification that defines how the QUIC transport protocol detects packet loss and manages congestion to ensure efficient and reliable data transmission on the internet.
