I've never seen that movie. Looks like a gas.

I highly doubt that America's adversaries are going to jail any of their
citizens that builds them a GPS jammer. ;-)

I'm a firm believer in testing things like you use them. The problem
with anything that is too reliable is that people forget how to live
without it. Nobody practices the fall-back methods enough if they
aren't forced to. I don't think a bit of jamming here or there is
necessarily a bad thing. It forces people (or equipment) to retain
whatever skills they had before the new-fangled method came into
existence. If nothing else, that will make for a good sanity check.

Besides, if the last Gulf war was any indication, the US seems really
good at finding and dropping bombs in GPS jammers. It is probably not a
good idea to hide a GPS jammer in your secret terrorist hideout and
expect it to increase your security.
