I’m reminded of when cell phones first came out and had the little pigtail shaped antenna on the rear window, people would buy a fake antenna to make others impressed with their status. There were stories of emergencies and victims begging the showoff to call for help, but he would have to admit it was all a sham. About as useful as a fake handgun.

One of my students recounted a situation where he was being harassed by an aggressive driver on the freeway in a relatively uninhabited area of Arizona.
He had a non-working cell phone in the car. He made motions as if he were calling on the phone, the harassment stopped, and the perp skedaddled.
