Goes both ways, yes if a robber got their hands on this they could figure out if people are in the house or not, but the same goes for cops.
A cop could know how many are in the house, if anyone is lying, if they might be ambushed if they look in the house, pretty much they can be better prepared.
But if your logic is to say people can use this tech to rob easier, then cars shouldn't exist because it allows people to commit crimes easier, or we shouldn't have bridges because people might put explosives on them and cause mayhem.

This is silly. I just wanted to point out how easy such a device could be misused.
In the end I don't care if the person using technology like this against me (or you) is wearing an uniform or not.

New construction should use metal lath, even if you drywall over it.

It's funny because I was picturing someone wallpapering their walls and window blinds with thick layers of tinfoil after reading this. :)

I have a house with plaster/metal lath. Also exterior aluminum siding. My below grade basement gets better cell signal than my upstairs.

Sounds perfect! They make repeaters for cell service, i would suggest looking into it. They are expensive, but it is really annoying to have your phone die.

What a waste of time, that would be used in special ops... meta data phone tracking is more cost effective
