Is it possible? Yes, but it's not feasible because the data rate would be too low. That's what I'm trying to get across. There are lots things that can be done but many of those are not useful.
[snip] I agree that the data rate will be low. I don't agree that it's not feasible. There will be indeed be _plenty_ of ways that a low bit rate channel can do everything the right adversary needs. A few bits for second is plenty of data rate for sending control commands/rule changes to a router backdoor mechanism, stealing passwords, or leaking cryptographic keys required to decrypt the VPN data stream intercepted from elsewhere on the network, leaking counters, snmp communities, or interface descriptions, or criteria-selected forwarded data samples, etc.... -- -JH
