Telnet IS TCP. "Telnet wrapped in a thin layer of XOR" might fit better?

    I'm guessing that was supposed to be "secured by a thin layer of TLS"...

    Thats what I thought as well, but TLS as a term felt a bit too technical for the meme format, which is why I suggested XOR.

    Ah, I think, I know what you mean, that the format is supposed to be written with foolish oversimplifications that are borderline incorrect, whereas "secured by TLS" just sounds like a normal statement from an expert...
