Raspbian DID this. They now ship with SSH off by default.

They should have done this:

1. User tries to SSH to rpi over LAN from their laptop.

2. rpi SSH server sends back a request for a torrent of the 1999 smash hit "The Matrix"

3. laptop sends torrent "The Matrix" iso.

4. If the average latency dips below a threshold value, don't connect.

5. If it's done in five minutes, connect.

6. set rpi's SSH server to key-based authentication for strong keypair that was generated on user's laptop.

7. Done.

And suddenly there would be no escape from the matrix, no seriously may I recommend matrix.org for you?
