Not to bust your chops, but that's true for electric fields -- not so much for magnetic fields. Effective magnetic shielding requires the use of a material with a high magnetic permeability such as Mu-metal (Carpenter Specialty Alloys). Rolled foil copper such as that found on PCBs has little effect.
