Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Radio jammer, it's fairly cheap, but highly illegal by the FCC.
I made one and hid it under my seat at my job and it blocked cellphones and Wi-Fi from working. Context is I was a teacher for a piece of shit school district. Every year they had a bullshit ra-ra thing a few days before school started. Everyone just sat on their phones and laptops every year, so I made it so nothing worked, it was amazing to watch all the IT tards that don't know how to factory reset an Android phone try to "fix it" all while people couldn't watch YouTube. It was like calling Dell IT live action, reboot, reboot, I just can't figure out if. Worth the $20 by a mile.
How did you make one for $20?
Any arking device is a broadband jammer.
I still don't get it.. Do you mean an arking device like an aluminium umbrella or similar? How did OP hid something like that under his seat/desk? And how effective would it be in such a place..
More like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spark_gap preferably with horn electrodes.
Ah, I missed the part about affecting cellular and wifi. I was hoping for something more directed for minimal disruption.
I've actually had the same problem as OP. Nuisance neighbors with drones, but I don't know who it is but they peep in windows.
