Radio ads for "phantom"?
I've been hearing radio ads for a radar jammer called the "phantom" It makes the same outrageous as all the other radar jammers on the market and i'm wondering 2 things:
since owning a working radar jammer is a felony, why are they advertising an
a) an illegal product
or
b) a product that doesn't work

Since it doesnt work it isnt illegal. Its a "passive"(as in doesnt work) jammer.
Thats why they can sell it
