Yes, it would bother me. But I also know that there are ways to defeat the system. Anyone with a good knowledge of cars, electronics, electricity, and computers could easily override or bypass the circuit. I'm assuming all it does is cut power to the TPS (throttle position sensor). They can find all sorts of ways to stop what they don't like, but if there is a way to do something, there is also a way to not do that same thing. Just like security systems and any anti-theft device. There'll always be a way around something.
