Suppose we take a new router that can be reflashed with linux kernel and
add the tunneling capability. That should work fine for customer
premises. I believe they can be bought new for under $60.

We want efficient tunneling and minimal encryption. If I send an email
encrypted with a decoder ring I got in my breakfast cereal, it is easily
breakable. If I can show that anybody intercepeted that email and
decoded it, I might be proving their actions are willful and deliberate.
I believe the same legal principal would deter ISP's from analyzing the
tunnel contents.

The provider should be able to handle lots of these vpn tunnels per
linux server.
