Comment on Americans’ Cellphones Targeted in Secret U.S. Spy Program

Comments

The US Marshals are not the only federal law enforcement agency doing something like this. According to documents I obtained through a FOIA in 2012, ICE has purchased an airbourne mounting kit and paid for airbourne training for their Stingray II cell phone tracking gear.

Anyone interested in learning more about IMSI catchers and their use by US law enforcement agencies might be interested in this law review article I wrote. http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2437678

The US Marshals are not the only

yep. The cell phone tracking has actively been used for tracking and targeting in Ukraine/Russia war on Donbass by both sides.
