Or could it be possible to put out enough 'garbage' radiation to throw
them off? it seems to me that if you knew which frequencies to use, you
could blast out cryptographicly random white radio noise which would make
it imposible to determine what was 'good stuff'. Basicly the concept is
to encrypt all of your wasted radiation with a one-time pad, and throw
away the keys.
