Comment on Federal judge puts limits on FBI use of “stingray” cell site simulators

Comments

It says the destruction of collected info not pertaining to the target must occur within 48 hours but prior to this it says they frequently need to diff multiple sessions possibly at different locations to pinpoint the target and eliminate others.

Does this mean they cannot run sessions separated by > 48 hours, since no diff would be possible afterwards?

No, it means they're going to do the sessions anyway, keep the data, do the diff whenever they feel like it and then phone in an anonymous call with the evidence, then destroy the collected information.
