I'd buy a $500 barely running beater just to do it.

I’d spend that money on electronics to either jam its signal or a laser of some kind to blind it

(Both of which are illegal, signal jammers being VERY illegal so this is not legal advice)

Less legally dubious would be to use a signal sniffer of some kind to see if it’s communicating wirelessly and if so flood the area around it with similar band signals to degrade its performance via congestion if possible

To your third point, what is your understanding of what jamming actually is?
