SECURITY CONCERN - Purpose of the streaming API calls

What is the purpose of this streaming API call?

 

https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby/wiki/Video-Streaming

 

Why I ask is that I had a user demonstrate to me how they can highjack the media on my emby server by hotlinking these URLs wherever he chooses.  It doesn't require any kind of authentication.  The user just needs to dump out the item IDs and then he can download whatever he wants, whereever he wants, even if he doesn't have an account.

 

Seems like a huge security hole.
