#3  Forcing them off the network is almost as good as listening in. I predict a steep rise in the price of homing pigeons.

#2  What about the cellphone embedded in their car/truck engine computer?
What about their GPS?
What about their laptop?
What about their wristwatch?
What about their I-POD/MP3 Player?
What about any mass produced electronic stuff they may have?
What about the "Smart Dust" or "Pixie Dust" that might be on their clothes or bodies or car?
What about those KeyHole type sats looking down at them? You know. The ones that are basiclly a Galileo Telescope looking down.
What about the video cameras they use to record their gunsex?
What about the TV's and Radios? (Are they going to check each one for extra chips?)
What about their computer printers? (That one bit Saddam hard at the beginning of Gulf War I.)

They have a lot of stuff to have reason to get paranoid about. Perhaps they should just be nude and covered with room temperature mud. Only use fiberglass knives to attack. No guns. No rockets. No metal. (It would improve their survival rates. Of course when they run into our troops that way it would really suck.)

Oh, even if it is "clean" electronics it will leak something. That can give them away.
