Hmmm... If I can ssh... I'm gonna use SCP

If I can't SCP but can port forward, I'm gonna use netcat

Maybe I'm missing something, but this seems unnecessary.

It creates an ssh tunnel and then sends the file over http, so .... literally no advantage to using this over ssh/scp.

Worse in every way, actually.

What's the advantage over sftp, scp, or similar lower level protocols?

I don't need to configure a server on each VM

zssh is in most distros, but why not reinvent the wheel by port forwarding http?
