why

* PrivateNetwork -> big hammer
  service needs no network stuff at all

* RestrictAddressFamilies -> finer hammer
  service must only talk local

* IPAddressDeny/IPAddressAllow
  better way than iptables because it's for the whole
  process-group independent of users/groups and specific
  binaries

  can be combined with RestrictAddressFamilies
  RestrictAddressFamilies=AF_INET AF_INET6
  IPAddressAllow=192.168.196.0/24
