Mirroring Input Events to multiple computers
Currently I'm using LiteNetLib (https://github.com/RevenantX/LiteNetLib) and it's working pretty well. There is a little input lag but it's more than acceptable.

Lan connection for a monogame game
Check LiteNetLib. Judging by your requirements simply passing coordinates back and forth between two clients should work. Designate one of the games as host and the other as client, but just pass coordinates would work over LAN. Optimise from there if gameplay isn’t thet smoot by lerping between past and newly received coordinates.

Windows Central: "Microsoft to merge Surface Pro X ARM and Surface Pro 9 Intel versions under one product line"
For networking, file IO, and streams in general, there's Korio and for Java; for just networking, there's LiteNetLib for C#; for what looks like data streams in general, there's Okio also for Java; and Tokio for multi-threaded IO in Rust.

Unity and Mirror: Can I Use it?
I've been a bit "Unity offline", and even more so when it comes to networking solutions, because of my real job :), but LiteNetLib is quite good. There's also a new HLAPI solution called FishNet which seems very interesting.

Worried about server security and seperation with Mirror Networking
You definitely want to a low level API (LLAPI) instead, like f.ex. LiteNetLib, ENet, lidgren or similar. I haven't touched anyone of these recently, except the first one a year-ish ago, so I won't say anything about where they stand today.

Small new video showcasing Combat for the Nexus Forever (Wildstar) update coming this Sunday
Little known fact: a surprisingly large number of software development projects are covered in duct tape and held up by popsickle sticks and WS was no exception. Anecdotally, the original Wildstar code base was apparently a rickety mess way, way before they shut down the official servers. As for the emulator code, you can look at it yourself as it is an open source project: https://github.com/NexusForever/NexusForever if you're curious.
