When you have a non vulnerable network, or at least one that's
equally invulnerable to or exploitable by all participants, the
question of who uses it becomes more mooted by that balance.
Today's overlay networks are vulnerable to GPA's, which at
this stage are just governments and global telecoms... not
end users. There's a big imbalance there, and it's not in
favor of said users.

Best design principles vs adversaries, as school of thought
over a decade ago, are certainly different than what would
be designed in 2017. There's room for something new.
