Now, if you go further and say no data packets shall be allowed that are encrypted, well, my arms escalation analogy says go look up steganography and be prepared to admit defeat. You think a book can't be encrypted into a "legit" digital video signal? Guess again.
You can't stop the signal.

But why does the book need to be encrypted? Not for commercial purposes, no books are sold. For military purposes? Why not stop fighting instead. For personal reasons? Perhaps there can be an exception.
Legitimacy? All signals are legitimate.
