Borg encrypts the data itself. Data is encrypted at the source and saved 
as is at the destination. This protects from an attacker trying to read 
the data at the destination.

SSH encrypts the transport channel. The data stream is encrypted on the 
source and decrypted at the destination. This protects from an attacker 
sitting in between source and destination (MITM - man in the middle).
