I’m in a bad mood today after two days of kid care and a major mess from a storm this morning, that’s what happened, LOL.
And like I said…if others want to play this one, have fun. Not me! We all enjoy it our own way….
09/02/2011 at 7:51 pm #1952819Just hide a cache in a canyon! Use nature’s scrambler!
09/02/2011 at 9:59 pm #1952820Would be the thing to buy if you get on that new show “Take the money and run” they would not have any GPS info on your route, you would have $10,000 for sure.
09/02/2011 at 10:22 pm #1952821Looks like it could make for a fun gag – for a minute or two. 😈

Been out of power here for just under 8 hours…
On the Left Side of the Road...09/03/2011 at 12:08 am #1952823won’t bug me a bit, go for it!!
09/03/2011 at 1:19 am #1952824I’ve been waiting for that post…
09/03/2011 at 11:33 pm #1952825am I missing something though caches were created to be found. or one could use a ant that places a signal in one direction.
09/04/2011 at 9:43 pm #1952826Thanks for the info. I just ordered one for work so I can’t be tracked on GPS in our cars. Nice idea 😆
09/14/2011 at 5:52 am #1952827I just got the GPS blocker in the mail. It got to me in a business week, not bad considering it comes from Hong Kong! It really works. And works well. Its very well made too. Solid construction, has a green light when the unit is swithed on, and a red light on the bottom to show its charging. It came with 2 chargers ( a car charger and a wall charger). nice and small unit, about 3.5-4 inches long, barely 2 inches wide and about 3/4 inch thick. I used it at work tonight, and I could see my vehicle on the company GPS map. As soon as I turned on the unit, my vehicle was instantly frozen on the GPS map. Its so cool. As soon as I click the switch off, my vehicle jumps on the map to whereever I actually am. It doesnt seem to interfere with any other electrical signals in my vehicle, including my phone. I dont know how long it lasts on one charge yet, but I cant see people leaving this in a cache becaus the rechargable unit would die too fast. It does no good without power. Ok, just wanted to give my plug to this product. Very neat thing, and it works (for now anyway). Cheap too. Thanks for posting this.
09/14/2011 at 1:39 pm #1952828Well, if you worked for my company and used this sort of device and were caught, you would be instantly fired. If you believe your employer is not entitled to keep track of their vehicles and employees while on the clock, I suppose this is a good choice. Just don’t ask me to pay your unemployment check.

Yup, that’s what I believe. It’s funny how these same businesses did just fine before without utilizing a Big Brother spying system. So I’m all for anything that gets “the man” out of my hip pocket. And good luck to anyone figuring out that a jamming device is being used. Especially with how glitchy those systems are all on their own.

I agree 100%. Why waste company money? Especially in an economy like we have currently.
09/15/2011 at 4:11 pm #1952831I think I have to side with Team Deejay and Sevencards. If you’re not doing anything you’re not supposed to, then why be concerned about the employer keeping track of their assets.
I’ll admit that I’m not a fan of being “tracked”, but the employer has that right. As an employee, you “agree” (explicitly or implicitly) to certain monitoring. Providing “false or misleading” information is grounds for disciplinary action in almost all companies.

That line of reasoning assumes the function of privacy is to hide something. Privacy is a freedom, not a burglar’s mask. Also, That statement is basically a false dichotomy – the same kind of conundrum as “you’re either with us or against us.” It presents a false choice: you are either guilty of something and therefore have a reason to hide it, or you are not guilty of anything and therefore have no reason to hide anything. It is based on the (false) premise that privacy’s sole purpose is to conceal wrongdoing, and it excludes the possibility that someone may be innocent of any wrongdoing buy may still want to conceal their activities. Why? Because something is embarrassing, but not wrong. Something may be deeply personal.
Sheeple (a portmanteau of “sheep” and “people”) is a term of disparagement, in which people are likened to the herd animals sheep.
The term is often used to denote persons who voluntarily acquiesce to the perceived consensus of the “herd” (other people in the group), without critical analysis or sufficient research to understand the ramifications of that decision. By doing so, Sheeple embrace beliefs and undertake actions without a sound foundation for doing so.**We the sheeple of the United States, in order to form a more socialistic, humanistic government, establish true social justice, insure politically correct speech, provide for the complete disarming of all Americans, promote the general welfare state, and to secure the blessings of servitude to our beloved government forever do hereby decimate and subvert the Constitution of the United States.**
