Your X network traffic would be clear text over the network if you did it this way.

Instead, you should "ssh -x" or "ssh -y" to pull the traffic over the ssh encrypted channel.

The -y option should be used with caution; read the docs.

You will also need to xhost +(host) which has its own problems.

It's capital -X and -Y

-x disables X11 forwarding.
