With the CPU and RAM available in a router that has to actually continue
functioning at the same time? Exactly how much data through put would you
consider to be usable in this scenario?
Again, my point is not that its impossible but that all these things are
impractical AND there are
I can't agree Jimmy, I don't see a few bps being anywhere close to being
useful in any of the scenarios your describe especially because there are
easier ways of doing those things. To do any of that the first thing you
have to do is establish the CC channel so now you have a very low bit rate

This I agree with and in fact I said in earlier parts of this conversation
that the existence of a kill switch and/or backdoor in Huawei gear wouldn't
surprise me at all. Of course I'd say the same thing about pretty much all
the gear manufacturers and its really just a question of who
