There is one way to get files off my computer, it is SFTP, which uses the
SSH authentication mechanism and encryption. (As an extra precaution, SSH
and SFTP are also NOT open to the WAN/Internet, my cable modem doubles as a
hardware firewall and I don't forward port 22 there.) I don't want or need
any other mechanism, especially not an unauthenticated and/or unencrypted
one.
