Had to do with inhibiting high-accuracy commercial applications like
surveying and precison aircarft navigation AND the competition.


There are industries, including things as basic as grain farming which depend on
the current accuracy of the GPS system.

Some sheet-head with a bomb doesn't need GPS to find a tall building to target,
but many segments of our economy depend on it. Taking down GPS for that reason
is equivalent to taking down the world-wide-web because Tim McVeigh used it to
look up the address of the Federal Building in OKC.
