- **Tor WiFi Network** - Using [OnionPi](https://github.com/breadtk/onion_pi), you can create a second wireless network, that routed traffic through Tor. This is very light-weight so can be done with just a [Pi Zero W](https://amzn.to/2Urc0hM). Here is a configuration [guide](https://www.sbprojects.net/projects/raspberrypi/tor.php)
- **Faraday Case** - If you want to block signals for devices such as car keys, smart phone, laptop or even just RFID-enabled cards and passports, you can line a box or pouch with [Faraday Fabric](https://amzn.to/2ORKtTr)
- **GPS Spoofer** - If you don't want to be tracked with GPS, then using a SDR you can send out spoof GPS signals, making near-by GPS-enabled devices think that they are in a totally different location. (Wouldn't recommend using this while on an airplane though!). You can use [gps-sdr-sim](https://github.com/osqzss/gps-sdr-sim) by [@osqzss](https://github.com/osqzss), and run it on a [Hacker RF](https://greatscottgadgets.com/hackrf) or similar SDR. Here's a [guide](https://www.rtl-sdr.com/tag/gps-spoofing) outlineing how to get started, you'll also need a [NooElec HackRF One](https://amzn.to/2Ta1s5J) or similar [SDR](https://amzn.to/39cLiOx). Check your local laws first, you may need a radio license.
- **No-Mic Laptop** - You can go one step further than using a mic-blcoker, and physically remove the microphone from your laptop. (And then use a removable external mic when needed). See how, for [Apple MacBook and iPhone](https://www.wired.com/story/remove-the-mic-from-your-phone/) | [Video Guide](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eo-IwQMeVLc). If that seems to extreme, there are [other options](https://security.stackexchange.com/a/130402)

- **USB Data Blocker** - By simple removing the data wires from a USB adapter, you can create a protector to keep you safe while charing your device in public spaces. See [this guide](https://www.instructables.com/id/Making-a-USB-Condom) for more info (note: fast charge will not work)

- **Laser Surveillance Defeater** - Sophisticated spies could potentially use a laser microphone, which bounces an invisible infrared laser off of a window and back to a light sensor. By measuring any interference in that reflected light, the laser microphone can detect vibrations in the window pane and reconstruct sound on the other side of the glass. A laser surveillance defeater creates small in-audible vibrations, which can stop all vibration-based evesdropping.
