Btw these little DIY 2.4 GHz jammers are also very handy to have just in case. As long as you get them out the way before you set off the EMP generator 😅

They phone home over cell. Usually 4g LTE with relatively high gain antennas. You wont jam it with that.

No that one was just meant as a general lifehack 😅

[–] wetbeardhairs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

A lifehack that might wind you up in federal prison. Breaking company equipment is one thing and it might cost you your job and a small settlement. That's the kind of advice I don't mind giving. I do generally try not to tell people to commit felonies.

This is for emergencies, during riots and such because it can take down drones and disrupt communication. I think people should figure out for themselves if their use case is morally permissible and worth the risk. I'm just sharing info that's readily available. Also owning this is legal where I live and I'm not even sure we have a word for felony.
