That's also how I replied to Chris

*That's* much more problematic.
If you do not trust a line, you should introduce encryption to secure it;
but it will make things slower.
As I already stated, we need maintain inter-host trust level, which
should measure host and line security and reliability (i.e. chances of
failure; chances of piracy); various checking should be done according to
this trust level.
