unlimited access to the internet

instant fail. I could probably hack my way out of a box with only GET requests.

Give yourself a challenge. Do it with only DNS lookups!

Well, there's always http://code.kryo.se/iodine/ Of course, the challenge there is somehow getting the other end of the tunnel set up - but maybe there's a geek out there who set one for kicks or their own use, and got sloppy.

It's a sufficiently established work around now that I'd be outright shocked if there weren't accessible servers up.

Great, you said it! You know what you need to do now.

Um... not give my boxed AI DNS access?

I meant that the player had access to the contemporary Internet as an analogue to 'what information could the boxed AI have access to' (perhaps it's given a big static dump of the Internet prior to its creation).

Ooops. Didn't think of that. Of course that was your intent, master archivist.

No, I should've been clearer.

In one version, the AI-player knows who the gatekeeper is before the game starts, and has unlimited access to the Internet to gather as much data on them as possible to assist their manipulation.
