Lamest Security Gadget Yet: GPS Tracker Defense

The GPS Tracker Defense will disable any GPS tracking device within range. It does this by disabling any GPS gadget's ability to connect with satellites -- INCLUDING YOUR OWN!

Its limited, 16-foot range guarantees that trackers will be safe, while your own GPS is disabled.

The GPS Tracker Defense has the exact same effect as simply turning off your GPS.

Who ever came up with this must have been bored and wanted something to do.

Trying to think of the target at whom this marketing would be aimed, I figure it would be of use to criminals who steal cars. By carrying one of these, the device would disable the gps tracking devices secretly installed within a vehicle for the tracking company to find your car.

Car thieves: big marketing potential

How many car thieves do you know that have extra money to buy this kind of device?

They could steal one - the device plugs into the cigarette lighter outlet.
