    Another crypto mistake by Sony this time leaving traffic completely unencrypted.

      is it truly a security issue here? Especially relative to the machine's effort to encrypt the stream.

        My video stream sent to a public streaming audience might be seen by the public in transit!

          Both YouTube and Twitch allow you to do non public streams. And someone can get the stream key and stream over you. With the twitch model where stream keys don't get replaced you can imagine a secondary market place selling access to stream content on compromised channels.
