Written by Editor

The Metro section of the Washington Post had an article yesterday:

“Robbers allegedly tracked gambler with GPS they hid on car.”

It gets better. There was another GPS enabled tracker on this guy’s car placed there by an investigator hired by his wife.

If companies that make GPS jammers were listed on the NY stock exchange, I would be contacting my broker and saying “buy!”
