I'm guessing this is for states/provinces/countries that don't allow radar detectors.

Actually, the cloaking doesn't seem to work. They can only detect certain types of antennas though.

Not necesarrily the antenna... The local oscillator in the RD tends to 'leak'. This is what the RDD's sniff out.
Higher end RD's can sense the sniffers and shut the LO down while alerting. I think a few years back one of the FCC's design specs changed to require lower emissions from RD's, thus making the RDD less useful on new RD's.
Phew. Any more TLA's and I'd have screamed.

Can we get back on topic and talk about the poor kid who is about to get busted for theft? I'm dying to hear the outcome of this.

He's going to sit in a little dark room with IE's web standards compliance officials.
