A mythical device, closely related to the bogometer, which when activated can detect bullshit. Constantly being updated to new versions that can detect fresh new versions and varieties of bullshit, including push content (1997), portals(1998), mobile internet(1999) and ubiquitous broadband access(present day).
Also correctly identifies vintage bullshit, such as the classic "the check's in the mail" or the ever popular "yes, of course it was good for me too".
DARPA research director Rand Waltzman always recommended the use of this device upon hearing the word methodology used in the context "if you use our methodology you can have monkeys writing the code and it will still look like the word of God".
