From the description, Gecko Tape Gloves are actually a set that includes gloves, kneepads, and slip-on-soles. I'm not sure I'd want to use the wireless bonus in 5th edition though; I'd hate to be 100 stories up, and have some enemy decker or TM turn the adhesive off! 
Please. you wouldn't feel it.
Seriously? Yea that is an issue. But like all wireless bonuses...there is some risk involved.
But also some measure of common sense on the half the GM too really needs to be applied some times.
The Matrix, while infinite in size, is also very cluttered if you think about. Millions, if not billions of points of connection, those grouped into clusters. then those clusters into clusters, and those clusters in clusters.... So as a Random even? Please
However, if say they spotted you from some other means (random drone, a camera, someone looking up?) I could see some sick twisted little Rigger/Hacker going:
"Hey turning off that assholes gecko equipment will give me 10 seconds entertainment...."
"LOOK!!!!" <pointing at your splattered corpse> "Neo classical 20th Century modern art! Lets go get a Soykaf"
