Proven wrong? I keep saying that you'll get caught using those things.
Blake Allen
>land of the free
Jose Wilson
This. What if there had been an emergency? Fuck that guy.
Easton Phillips
you don't call for an emergency while driving on the highway, usually you'd fucking pull over
Daniel Peterson
Every time I or someone else says that you get a flurry of retards saying "LOL they don't really check"
James Parker
>60-year-old Jason Humphreys admitted to police he’d used the device on his daily commute for roughly two years
He used it daily for two years and only just got caught. Everytime cell phone jammers are brought up Sup Forums says the same thing. If you use it irregularly and in different places you won't get caught.
Kayden Long
LOL they don't really check
seriously, this faggot used it during his daily commute. there's a huge difference between turning it on & off at the starbucks and him
Jason Perez
That also fucks with emergency calls which is irresponsible. Also, people having troubles with their phones, dropping calls or whatever is a greater distraction than just fucking talking.
Anyway, fuck this guy for thinking he is so important. I hate people like that.
Sebastian Cruz
If he was in a private vehicle, why would he use a jammer?
Mason Cooper
Did you even read the OP? The guy was infringing on other's people right to talk on their cell phones? Are eurotrash really this spineless they let other people tell them how they should live? No wonder your cesspool of a union is drowning in rapefugees.
Camden Peterson
A cell phone company got suspicious when they noticed something scrambling the signal on their towers during certain times of the day.
The more retards like this there are, the more incentive there is for an automated system to be put in place.
Levi Sanchez
but what's the point of using it other than just randomly fuck with people's phones now and then, seeing them rage when there's no connection? Even if you'd do that, you'd only do it a few times, or few times a month, honestly it would get boring real fast
it says right there in the OP >because he didn’t want drivers around him talking on their cell phones I mean, it kinda makes sense because you kinda feel safer but nah, why bother
Caleb Morgan
Piss off mate, case by case. Pull over into a ditch
Daniel Jones
That's fucking stupid, I hope he crashes into a lake and his doors malfunction.
I'll pull over into your mom
Xavier Turner
Use the phone while driving sound irresponsible as fuck to me if u wanna know...
Dominic Martinez
>I'll pull over into your mom he's still right, if there's an accident and you want to report it, you pull over and report it since they're going to ask you to explain what's going on in some detail. Were you planning on calling 911 while continuing driving? >hello 911, there's been a car accident here on the highway >okay sir, can you please tell me how many people are injured and how many vehicles took place in it >lol I don't know, I just continued on driving, gotta get home to shitpost on Sup Forums in time
Gavin Williams
Wait it's actually legal to use a phone while driving in America?
Logan Moore
It sure is reddit in this thread.
>Don't use cell phone jammers, what If I need to make a call! >Muh morals! >Fuck this guy for thinking he is so important! I'm the one who's important so don't interrupt my calls! >I... I mean it can interrupt emergency calls! Yeah, that's actually why I'm against it!
Sup Forums is about discussing technology and how to use it. Not about crying over things that make you upset.
Jackson Gonzalez
I want to know how a portable jammer put out more wattage than an actual cell site that can provide for thousands of simultaneous calls.
If one guy with a portable jammer running off 12 volts can shut down a cell site, the cell site was shitty. On top the fact CDMA, TDMA, And GSM run on a plethora of bands. There is no way he could of shut down every single band in use.
I also want to know how the jammer shut down first responder sites that are not on the sane band as any cell phones and most rural bands are still analogue.
This story is F-U-D 100%.
Blake Jones
It usually isn't illegal but you still get fined for it as far as I know
Easton Bailey
>he doesn't live in the land of the free
Colton Cruz
Well then you don't know shit.
Charles Lewis
but that's what I said. it's not illegal, but you can get fined for it. I said "usually" because I didn't mean only on the USA but other countries too, I think I've some countries actually made it illegal
Jonathan Morgan
Fined for it IF you cause an accident, not 'get fined for it'. Learn English, fucking poo in loo.
Kevin Fisher
> it is illegal, it is against the law.
it is illegal in some states, but the consequence for doing it is a citation and fine.
Ethan Evans
how else would you fucking get fined unless you get pulled over by the cops, which usually happens if you're breaking road rules or get caught speeding
Daniel Jackson
I would do that
David Flores
well you better not give them your personal information then
Isaiah Wood
Or, what if someone had to call you? If you're answering on Bluetooth, I don't see the issue. Fumbling for your phone absolutely dangerous. Pressing "answer" on my steering wheel, then talking? What's the problem? Did you fall for the "talking to someone on Bluetooth is more dangerous than talking to someone in the car" meme?
Josiah Gomez
>911? Yes there's been an accident, people are hurt and there's blood everywhere >Where are you? >We're at the interstate between- [Guy with jammer drives past]
Austin Nguyen
no, it's also why it's allowed to use your phone as long as it's "hands-free"
Christian Rivera
This. That's why Sup Forums was invented.
Andrew Howard
Mind providing a citation on that claim? Maybe rules or a post by Sup Forums staff saying this board is only for "discussing technology and how to use it" Last I checked this was simply the technology board. Are you going to argue cellphone jammers and cellphones aren't technology?
Anthony Gomez
he's mad because noone discusses the technology part of the jammers, but the morality of using one
Easton Peterson
>A Florida man is in big trouble for using a cell phone jammer while driving on the highway.
how exactly do you track someone doing that?
Blake Bailey
>a florida man
How come it's always a man form Florida?
David Bailey
They have the loosest public records laws in America.
Isaiah Adams
>"LOL they don't really check
They don't. Using something that causes comm blackouts every day for TWO years on the same goddamn route will cause even the laziest people to think something is up though.
Brayden Jones
Free as in free to die, with a additional fine your family has to pay once you die?
Nicholas Martinez
it would be extremely painful
Nicholas Williams
Also most normies out there that aren't as poor or as paranoid as Sup Forums have bluetooth cars and phones now, on which it is perfectly legal to make hands-free calls while driving.
Nathan Ward
They usually track outages. If it's on the same route every day for two years, you know someone is reguarly using it.
Kevin Brown
You're retarded.
Justin Green
What? Please don't reproduce.
Logan Brooks
Sounds like a hero to me. People need to pay attention to the road instead of fucking around with their phones.
Ian Gonzalez
Yes, provided you aren't holding the phone.
Anthony Wilson
This is why modifying your router firmware is illegal.
Grayson Smith
>Sup Forums is one person
Joshua Ross
Depends state to state. Some don't have any laws about it. Most have laws against texting, some have laws against holding the phone (you have to use Bluetooth). I don't know of any state that outright makes it illegal
Zachary Fisher
LOL your stupid
Cameron Flores
They should lock this fucker in jail. Using gsm jammers in 99% situations means the car is stolen and the thief is trying to prevent locating the car via gps.
Christian Jenkins
except we live in 2016 already and most of the people have cars that can handle all calls via bluetooth. It doesn't require and physical interaction between user and phone. This fucktard should be buried alive for being a brainless cancer.
Ethan Reyes
>May 1 2014
Chase Rodriguez
You clearly have no idea what you're talking about... The hammer don't shut down any fucking cell towers, it just jams a small radious around itself
Benjamin Roberts
With the rise of AI, morality in technology is a thing more than ever before. Morality in technology belongs here.
Bentley Allen
ahahahah you naive fuck
Luke Williams
If I'll ever spot a retard like you or this fucktard from OPs link I'm gonna shoot you're on sight
Ryan Cooper
>Passengers never use their cell phones
Brayden Hernandez
more people should do that.
Joseph Price
More people should be violently exterminated.
Josiah Lopez
When you're on the road, you do not have a "right" to be a reckless fuckwit and significantly increase your chance of running over or ramming into people just so you can text Casey about that cute top you just found. That's why you have license plate, driver's licenses, road signs, a driving code, drunk driving laws, seatbelt laws, obligatory car insurance, all that shit. Taking the road is a choice. Nobody's forcing you to drive if you're not willing to abide to the rules.
If being allowed to use your phone on the road is the indicator of how free you are, you are dumb.
If you're not happy about that, go live in the jungle.
Jaxon Russell
Talking through the cell phone doesn't imply holding it in your hand or touching it at all. Go justify taking away our rights somewhere else you liberal cancer trash.
Luke Parker
>it is illegal in some states, but the consequence for doing it is a citation and fine. It should be illegal everywhere. It's just as irresponsible as driving drunk, and many people have died as a result of it. I applaud the old bastard, I can only criticize him for not reporting the drivers plates to the State Police dept. Nobody needs to die over a fucking phone call.
John Watson
>daily commute for roughly two years >daily commute >two years
>it took two years to catch someone this predictable
Samuel Howard
It should be legal everywhere because it's 2016 and Also European Law > ameritrash regulations.
Or actually... It should be illegal in the US. The average IQ in this shithole is much lower than in the EU, so the probability of having a car incident because of using cell phones in much, much higher. It's even worse if you count niggers and their (lack) or culture. Lol usa
Chase Ross
It is still dangerous.
Stop pretending you have rights you don't have you self-entitled lardo. Roads are not your property and you don't get the set the rules for using them.
Aiden Brown
Why are you angry
Leo Watson
Is this pr0n? Sauce?
Michael Edwards
I don't live in the united shithole, so I don't give a fuck. And I do have this right in my homeland.
Get rekt americuck
Xavier Hill

Hudson Harris
I'm not angry, I'm stating the obvious. Uncontrolled liberals are being unpredictable in their actions, and that's why the society should properly react to all attempts to take away their rights.
Oliver Scott
Americans think everything they like to do is a right they are entitled to. They're used to getting their way by throwing themselves on the floor, kicking and screaming about some random constitution amendment that basically weights their country down to the 19th century. Each one of them must remain a special snowflake sovereign island even if it has to indirectly cause thousands of deaths.
Jason Roberts
Fuck you.
A. You're explicitly allowed to call 911 from a moving vehicle even without handsfree.
B. Your passengers certainly can.
C. If you've pulled over to call 911, it shouldn't be cut off by a drive by jamming
D. If you're at home, you don't deserve to lose phone access just because you live within half mile of a highway
Tyler Russell
So what's stopping me from duct taping one of these underneath my enemy's car, so he always broadcasts a null field around him and never gets to use a cell phone in his car? No fingerprints of course.
Alexander Jenkins
it requires a lot of power to run - how do you intend to power it?
Cooper Cruz
>topic has literally nothing to do with politics >cell phones on or cell phones off? >LIBRULS! ITS LIBRULS! WAHHHHH
Camden Anderson
Proof: Amerifat here is advocating for killing people over momentarily being unable to have cellular transmissions during the few minutes in your lifetime that you will drive your car near people owning such a device.
He wants to kill people over his perceived """""""rights""""""".
This is how sociopathic this shithole of a country is and this is why it's bound to become a second world country by the end of the century. :^)
Jason Wilson
Trying to take away rights and trying to control the society even more and more should result in instant extermination of such corrupted politician.
Nathaniel Roberts
>Asshole with jammer crashes his car >People stop to help him >Try to call emergency services >No signal This would have been poetic justice
Michael Bennett
>being this assmad because someone is right Go away libcuck
Parker Morgan
IT'S NOT A RIGHT IN THE FIRST PLACE
As an amerilard, you are entitled to stuff like free speech, owning dick-compensating guns and fair trials. You are NOT entitled to yap it up on a cellphone while using roads that were built with public funds. They aren't yours and you must abide to rules set forth by society to be allowed to use them. DEAL WITH IT.
Wyatt Moore
>implying I'm a part of your two party system
kekekekeke
keep voting for party #2, they're totally different than party #1 :)
Jack Perry
Most modern cars can be tracked by the owner via GSM+GPS if the car is stolen. By using GSM jammers you pretty much kill this possibility. GSM jammers should be illegal (and they already are here in Europe).
Leo Bennett

Owen Flores
>roads aren't mine Kek, they're mine, yours and everybody else in this country. They're PUBLIC. I got the same right to control what happens to it (and on it) as you do. I'm a responsible person and I'm not gonna be cucked because some brainless niggers are causing car incidents while texting on their shitphones.
Logan Kelly
>mfw americunts feel entitled to kill people who endanger their lives even if it's not necessary to neutralize them, but they think it's excessive to allow people to block GSM signals in a short radius around them to prevent people from endangering them
Truly a country of morons.
Connor King
I would call that a slam jam, actually
John Wright
I would have jizzed myself
Xavier Wright
Things that are public have to have rules, or else you might just as well say people should be entitled to destroy roads since it's "theirs". There is no principle that can govern the amount of rules to use public roads. It's the voters and the elected official who decide and there is no "right" that you can expect to have them protect for you when it comes to roads.
Jayden Price
>blah blah blah Get cancer and die
Christopher Price
He meant that he's entitled to remove someone's right to live permanently because someone feels entitled to temporarily remove his "right" to talk on a cellphone.
The man has his priorities straight. Complete cellphone freedom is a lot higher on the scale of importance than the right to live for millenials.
Aiden Brooks
One time i researched and installed a custom rom on my phone driving to LA.
Jaxon Evans
Don't be mad because I'm right :^)
It's only a matter of time before your right to endanger people's live is taken away anyway, since there's nothing in the constitution preventing such a law. So keep seething with rage against liberals while the rest of society keeps on living and ignoring your special snowflake entitlements you millenial trash.
Jordan Anderson
That's of course if you don't die in a car accident by then of course. It seems very likely judging by how reckless and stupid you are.
Leo Ramirez
LA residents are subhumans so nobody was really in danger
William Mitchell
Putting your own measures illegally against what you feel might eventually be harmful for you while directly affecting several others. Might as well apply this to every aspect of your life, everywhere and at anytime. Good riddance.
