Like so much technology today it can be good or it can be bad depending on who is using it and for what purpose.

I wonder if there's a market for "threat warning receivers". They react to jamming by "home on jam", triggering an alarm, flood lighting, and hopefully CIWS.

Worst of all, they can prevent voting machines from wirelessly connecting to the Internet. You know, in case they need some last-minute, 2 am, software patches or something.

The corrugated roofing designates a WAVE.
The cook is a SCRAMBLER of eggs (or salad).

ergo WAVE SCRAMBLER.

Are they really ‘jamming’? Or tramsmitting a signal that your wifi interprets as a RESET?

LOL — makes perfect sense now.

I like my salad cooked rare so I had overlooked the ‘scrambler’ connection...

I don’t know, but the result is the same and illegal.

“ If you don’t want someone to hear YOUR signal, or locate you from YOUR signal, turn off whatever device YOU are transmitting from.”

Turning off phones won’t keep them from broadcasting from your microphone, camera or gps ping from towers.

Might want to update your tech background.

You might want to update yours.

You can put your phone in an RF proof envelope or even RF shielded cloth bag. They make them and they are cheap.
No need to interfere with everyone else around you just because you are paranoid.
