Comment Jammers should remain illegal (Score 1) 422
I work for a major wireless carrier, and my opinion on jammers is: "God I wish I had one sometimes!"
99% of the time, it would remain unused.. I would reserve it for extreme cases. However! if I'm in the movies and some idiot is carrying on a conversation... BAM! I would jam his/her signal with zero remorse. A considerate person would answer an emergency call in a theater in a low voice and immediately exit. Another instance would be while in school... doesn't matter if the teacher isn't doing anything at the moment, carrying on a conversation in the classroom would be an immediate jam. Once again, a respectful person would answer in a low tone and immediately exit if they had to take the call. I think everyone would agree with me here.
But Jammers should remain illegal because not everyone would have the good judgement to use the device only in the extreme cases like the ones I mentioned.
