What exactly is a lag switch? (Destiny)

I've heard about these things for years. What is a lag switch? They don't actually exist, do they? If they do, how do they work? Do you operate them on a foot pedal so you can keep your hands on the controller? Do you turn them on only after the match has begun or are they going all the time? Can you dial the lag up and down depending on how unstoppable you want to be? Can you just buy one online? Have any of you actually seen/used them in person?

PS No, I'm not looking to buy one.
