There was an alleged incident in 1993, where a sniffer had access to
the BARRNet low-speed router traffic--a lot less damaging than a
sniffer on MAE-West, but that's the only incident of the type I can
recall.  http://www.geek-girl.com/bugtraq/1993_4/0032.html is the only
useful reference I could find.
