I could be wrong, but I think that Shivan is merely requesting that we should mention the issue somewhere. Which I agree with. > A good solution here would be to add a note that clarifies this and > warns against deploying Babel RTT unencrypted on devices whose network > location is privacy-sensitive. I'm not sure if encrypting the Babel control traffic solves the problem. Even if the data is encrypted, it is still communicated to the other Babel nodes in the network, who might not or might not be trusted to learn your location. Claiming that encryption solves the problem would be a little bit like insisting that all HTTP traffic be encrypted while at the same time providing a mobile OS that shares your private data with Google.
