It's also you giving a huge signal to your location.

You really don't want to have a jammer signal on you alerting everyone what you're up to if you're trying to be stealth.

who's going to be tracking you? you think the FCC runs around with vans to make sure nobody is breaking regulations?

the only way anyone finds out you have a jammer is if you inconvenience the right person long enough to cause them to investigate and report to the FCC.

if you're driving through a city, your exposure is about 5-30 seconds per person synchronously.

not to mention most low power jamming hardware has an effective radius of around 15-25 feet.

still don't believe it? when was the last time you had a random wireless device drop connection and thought, "I bet someone has a jammer!"?
