gollark: Rednet, while at first glance appearing to enhance security by being able to send messages to specific computer IDs, is susceptible to the issues of spoofing (in this case, pretending that one's ID differs from one's actual ID) and interception, as it is built on top of the modem API, which permits doing this using its lower-level access.

gollark: You don't need to "bypass" it, just listen to rednet.CHANNEL_REPEAT with modem.

gollark: I wrote some of this, it's useful.
