Post by: CJS3 on May 10, 2009, 11:33:44 AM
In Wisconsin, it's the law? Invasion of privacy or good idea?

Is there any thing that blocks GPS like you can get a cell phone blocker (yes, I know it's not legal).

These threads send me to the kitchen for supplies to make a foil hat ... And, I'm not ashamed to say that either  :-\

Promoter of many of these devices are proud of the fact that they make us all trackable.  If bracelets and implants that make criminals on the radar at all times are a good thing, why do we want the same thing used on us?  And, don't give me the old "If you've done nothing wrong you have nothing to fear" line!  Watch anyone long enough and they will either slip up or you can create something. 

Excuse me while I fasten this duct tape under my chin ... the foil is slipping again.

I joke about the foil hat, but I  FEAR  THIS  TECHNOLOGY!  And yet, I am willing to sit and express myself on the internet ... Damn Gore  >:(

I agree whole heartedly with M58, the only reason I speak out here is because I want those fascist bas$^%ds to KNOW that some of us are watching back.

Does the foil go shiny side out or shiny side in?  I'm thinking out.

Here's a test: you'll know the £150 fob is working if your life continues steeped in the same plodding weariness to which you'll never become truly accustomed.

You look nice today.


HAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHHAAAA, nicely written piece.

Putting a bunch of magnets in your car also works.......That is still legal...

Some Ham radio guys also have frequency scramblers, that can disrupt a locked GPS signal. The battery in a small transmitter is very small, like a watch battery, easy to overpower with electronic "noise".

Oh, I didn't post this either.....
