Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Don't know how much data Moat and Snowflake need, but if it's only a tiny
 amount an alternative for the AMP proxy could be Google's favicon
 retrieval service, which allows to retrieve one 16×16 PNG at the time.
 Could perhaps be combined with wildcard DNS so you get `<some random id
 >.some-endpoint.torproject.org/favicon.ico`, `<another random id>.some-
 endpoint.torproject.org/favicon.ifo`
