The funny thing is that if I want to exchange e-mail with my evil
commander in the Khyber Pass, all we both need to do is agree on a
non-standard port. Or encode it in http or some other protocol. It is a
very simple thing to do. Who on earth provides technical advice to the
EU policy makers?

The telephone thing is harder. So why use it? Unless I use it with my
Java app that sends my messages to my ISP on a port as described above.
