Link-local networking in VPC is specifically designed to secure data that is plaintext at the application layer (DNS). It’s effectively communication with the hypervisor, not over some untrusted link.
If you don’t buy this, I guess you should start encrypting all your syscalls too?

- waych 4y agoIf you believe a piece of link local infrastructure is a good carrier to trust your data, I have some great broken switches you may be interested in buying. Or if you insist on it being a virtual stack, how about some DMA engines with transient errors that mix up your packet headers from their payloads? The network is secure is a fallacy.
