“The US government has been worried about GPS spoofing since at least 2003, when it published seven possible counter-measures against such attacks. “We’re fairly certain we could spoof all of these, and that’s the value of our work,” said one of the Cornell researchers.”

Its nice to see they are using their talents for such a good cause. Tearing down anything thats good seems to be a religion for these kinda freaks.

It would work on GLONASS too, and that’s the Russian GPS system.

Are you really that stupid? They're not doing anything the Russians, Chinese and... believe or not the French haven't already done before. Exposing the innate vulnerabilities of GPS makes us safer, not less safe and helps the government develop alternatives.

On September 10, 2001, you'd have complained of an expose revealing vulnerabilities in airport screening.
