This is probably illegal to do. These files are for educational use to determine ways the Flipper can work and how to prevent such actions.<br>
|
||
Files are UNTESTED and may cause magic smoke. Generated with a HackRF and recorded with the Flipper. (Credit: dandri#6962 on Discord)

**NOTE: Files have been removed because people can't be trusted. This is why we can't have nice things.**<br>
|
||
If you hunt for them, they should not be too difficult to find. (Discord is where they were found...)<br>
|
||
Direct messaging me and asking for them will result in being ignored at best or blocked at worst. =)

## United States
|
||
|
||
The use of a phone jammer, GPS blocker, or other signal jamming device designed to intentionally block, jam, or interfere with authorized radio communications is a violation of federal law. There are no exemptions for use within a business, classroom, residence, or vehicle. Local law enforcement agencies do not have independent authority to use jamming equipment; in certain limited exceptions use by Federal law enforcement agencies is authorized in accordance with applicable statutes.
|
||
|
||
It is also unlawful to advertise, sell, distribute, import, or otherwise market jamming devices to consumers in the United States.
|
||
|
||
The use or marketing of a jammer in the United States may subject you to substantial monetary penalties, seizure of the unlawful equipment, and criminal sanctions including imprisonment.
|
||
|
||
It can be a matter of life and death: Private persons using radio-jamming devices to interfere with emergency responder communication. And it’s on the rise.
|
||
|
||
For many it’s just a prank, but interfering with public safety communication is against federal law. In fact it is illegal to buy, sell, or operate a jamming device – an offense that carries with it fines of up to $112,000 per act and time in federal prison.

## UK
|
||
|
||
It is a crime to use any apparatus, including jammers, for the purposes of deliberately interfering with wireless telegraphy (radio communications) in the UK.
|
||
|
||
The maximum penalty is two years imprisonment and/or an unlimited fine. See [section 68](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2006/36/section/68) of the [Wireless Telegraphy Act 2006.](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2006/36/contents)
|
||
|
||
If you manufacture, import or distribute jammers, you may be committing a crime.
|
||
|
||
The Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive 2014/30/EU, which has been implemented into UK law by the Electromagnetic Compatibility Regulations 2016 (S.I. 2016/1091), places strict requirements on all electrical and electronic apparatus placed on the market or taken into service in the UK. The requirements state that apparatus must not cause excessive interference.
|
||
|
||
Ofcom may take appropriate enforcement action, including prosecution, to enforce the EMC provisions. The maximum penalty convention under the regulations is three months imprisonment and/or an unlimited fine. The courts can order forfeiture of stocks of equipment.
