Pretty good name for what this does. Watch Towers are communications between agreeing Nodes to keep on eye on each others Node. Node Operators pass their Watch Tower address between each other so when one of them is down for some reason, the other one watches for channel situations like a forced close. If this closure tries to use a non-current Channel state, then the Watch Tower will step in and penalize the Node trying to cheat. 

    Currently, the fee for watching another Node is disabled, but at some point there will be a cost with this.  Now if your Node does catch some foul play one will earn fees for being the good guy.
