Will it block Canadian hotdogs shot on USA soil? How about Mexican hotdogs? Asking for a friend.

Canadian hotdogs on US soil (aka "cross-dogging") and vice versus are disambiguated by shadow inclination vs timestamp to estimate latitude (outdoors) and fingerprinting microfluctuations in the power grid and resulting effects on lighting (indoors, Canada has a much larger share of hydroelectric).

GPS was considered, but rejected as insufficiently cool.
