Wouldn't a GPS jammer be relatively easy to locate or follow?

Wouldn't a device that mimicked a tracked GPS symbol be more useful?

GPS jammers are easy to track. A GPS spoofer, on the other hand, is more difficult to pin down and can cause at least as much havoc on the unencrypted (civilian) GPS.
