    There are a ton of 12v signal jammers you can use to block this stuff. If manufacturers put tracking in everything these are going to become standard aftermarket equipment.

    I already have one in my Mom’s car. She can’t use her cell phone while driving but that’s just an added bonus.

      Bruh those are highly illegal. At least in not backwards countries.
      Youre also jamming other peoples services. what happens in an emergency?

        Yes the thing blocking only my vehicle is a barrier in the event of an emergency. Never mind that it turns off with the car or that the driver can pull it out of the cigarette lighter at any time.

        God you folk are dummies.

        These things only have the signal strength to block a 5ft radius. That barely extends past the driver door and doesn’t if it’s still a steel paneled vehicle. Frankly you would probably need two for some SUVs.
