I've been pondering about responding to you. Since I can't see this as some sort of irony - here goes.

I'm sorry, but you're wrong. The shadow in your example would be bound by the speed of light, because the photons from the source of light are also bound by it.

A shadow is just a lack of photons on a surface surrounded by other photons.
