Technically speaking, yes, it’s plausible. They would have to get into Iran’s territorial waters to be within decent transmission range of much of the country, though. The most likely methods of getting information out of the country all involve being able to connect to a non-Iranian network, e.g. being on a non-Iranian satellite connection.

Thanks.

I assume the US military is working on something similar. Or will be after the recent Iranian uprisings.

Though I figure they could be blocked like blocking a cell phone signal.
