With any luck the thing will have a sufficiently short range that this won't
work.  I think the FCC might object otherwise.  When radar detectors first
became popular, various police agencies were quite interested in putting
permanent microwave emitters at strategic locations, to minimize usefulness
of the detectors and generally slow down the traffic.  The FCC refused to
license such transmitters.
