It seems there is still a possibility for passing information. For example, you can shove the little table across the barrier, or slowly slide it to indicate something. That's how the guy in the upper right passed it the first and second time.
There are endless ways to pass information. Notice the sibling comment about "active ethics." It's the game sort of saying "there's really no fool-proof way to keep you from cheating, so please just be a good person. Even to the point that if you're put into a situation where you could accidentally cheat, you should intentionally play non-optimally."
