I totally understand this and I agree when it comes to jammers this powerful.

My comment was about the low power models which only works for few feet, just enough for to cover your own car. Those are still illegal.

    GPS signals are incredibly weak and super vulnerable to interference.

    We all deserve the right not to be tracked.

    The solution to this isn't in GPS jamming the solution to this is in data collection laws. They should absolutely refuse to sell cars that don't have the option to turn off cellular links and GPS tracking.
