This is perhaps why so many tutorial writers here opt to develop tutorials based on how to break (which isn't necessarily security). To my mind it isn't really a security tutorial until you show a person how to stop it from being attacked/broken in this manner. You could at least amend your current tutorial and discuss how to secure it against MITM attacks. I'll give ya a big hint on where to start: All major OSes have built-in capability that would render ARP poisoning/MITM attacks useless.
