The he article I recall was about the FAA. They did an extensive test,
comparing many of their sites that used this device to many of their sites that
did not use it. The results were that there was no clear evidence that the
device prevented lightning strikes as advertised. Try google for FAA testing
of lightning suppressor or some such working.
Somewhere there's actually a nice photo of lightning striking one of the
devices at Cape Canaveral.
The seller used to (and may still) claim "as used by NASA", but in
reality, that's because NASA went out and bought a bunch of different
devices for testing.
