I suppose like most police depts did with radar detectors- they will outlaw this tech also

Also suitable for decent, law-abiding, and honorable people who wish to know when Big GovernmentTM agents are in their midst who might detain them (and lighten their wallets) for reasons known only to the police and their masters.

Next thing you know they will be telling us we cannot use our eyes or ears to detect when the police are nearby.

Authority was once conservative, but is not now in most cases.

When resistors and capacitors are outlawed, only outlaws will have resistors and capacitors.

This is not new technology... I’ve had a Bearcat scanner in my truck for over 8 years that has the “Beartracker” feature. It works using the same exact technology as described in the article. Sets off an alarm signal and a flashing red light whenever a police car is in the area. Has slowed me down plenty of times before I got to a radar trap, thus saving me a ticket. Also, since it is completely “passive” technology, it is undetectable in states where radar detectors (a non-passive technology, and thus detectable) are illegal.

Police lobby for law changes. Dumb politicians usually bend over backwards to give them what they want too, so they can say that they're "tough of crime" and be in campaign ads standing next to the local police chief.
Worst is when police lobby for gun control.

Must not happen very often WRT to radar detectors in personal vehicles since only Virginia and D.C. seem to outlaw them. I don’t believe a municipality can outlaw them when otherwise legal in the state.

Mabye an audio signal dog collar version is in order. That would just give them another reason to shoot the dog.
