Just apply common sense if it is a rubber brake line and using the cable tie method, make sure that you can't see it visibly squeezing the brake line.

You can't apply braking force that way, as it would be a constant deformation of the line. The only thing you could possibly do is impede hydraulic flow, reducing braking force, but that would take a serious effort to accomplish, and I doubt cable ties could handle the stress.
