Wait a minute… BS stands for “Beautiful Science” now?
Yes and there was an article few months ago telling that burglars now use wifi jammers to turn off wifi security cameras before breaking and entering. Those jammers are pretty much illegal as well but criminal do illegal stuff anyways…
That being said, how would blocking only the GPS help criminals in their criminal activities? I lack imagination I guess.
I totally understand this and I agree when it comes to jammers this powerful.
My comment was about the low power models which only works for few feet, just enough for to cover your own car. Those are still illegal.
From the low power models I’ve seen (which are still very much illegal, same as the most powerful ones) only work between 5 to 10 feet at the very most.
It’s like when the companies place trackers in cars, we have to assume they have the best intentions in mind (it is definitely for the customers security right?!)
But if we, the customers, block them from tracking us by jamming the GPS signal, they assume we have the worst intentions in mind (surely we are dirty criminals right?!)
This is why I said it “feels” wrong.
You know what feels wrong? You can easily buy GPS tracking devices on Amazon, but it is illegal to use a GPS jammer in USA, Canada and many other countries.
So companies spying you is fine, but blocking a GPS signal to prevent them from spying can get you a $16,000 fine.
Edit: my thought experiment is not about truck drivers being monitored but more about those fancy new EVs that sell your GPS based data to data brokers… You usually can’t turn off the GPS in those EVs.
I’m considering to get a Polestar 2 for many reasons but also because… No waiting time 😉
I have 3800+ hours on POE according to steam… I hate this metric
Really?! That is so more shittier than I thought!
And actual human beings purchased those things?
Probably bad tires to be honest. Bad tires for a hideous truck: a loosing recipe.
Mieux vaut tard que jamais pour l’ajouter à mon arsenal d’insulte 😁
Bizarre j’ai jamais entendu ça…
That’s legit! Glad to have witnessed your first comment!
I haven’t went back to reddit since july 3rd… Not even once! I like Lemmy the way it is because I don’t scroll for hours anymore and I like that.
Although I wish the comment section was a little more active in general.
Thanks for the precision. My comment was actually towards people who might be a little too passionate in the comment section 😉
Please don’t start a pointless fanboy war. We’re better than that on Lemmy.
Let’s enjoy it while the bots and troll farms are working double time on Reddit
I don’t want you to feel left out. Here’s one to you too! Edit: the OP tag is a little too subtle in the LemmyConnect app… Now I feel dumb lol
You are all wonderful humain beings!
I guess Revanced would eventually have a patch to skip this check. It can already spoof the client and such, why not this as well. I hope so
