RE: Police and The NSA Use Fake Cellphone Towers (Called IMSI Catchers & Stingrays) to Spy and Track Us - Funny How They Try to Disguised Them

in #technology7 years ago

actually hadn't heard of this particular device, but it certainly doesn't surprise me. George Orwell must be rolling in his grave right about now...

One more reason I'm still happily sportin' my good 'ole trusty LG Chocolate. Not to mention, it still fits in my front pocket, no extra charge! 😁

Sort:  

I didn't know about it either until it was used on us about two years ago. This device was even listening to a prepaid phone we had at the time under no name. Reg Flip phone. The only thing we got out of it was an apology and "sorry wrong person" It was quite a terrorizing experience but since I'm not the type of person to sue let it go. One day, I will write out the entire story-it's probably a five-part post!

definitely sounds like it'll be an interesting read! and not to say flip phones are any less able to be compromised, but at least they can't take away every last shred of one's dignity, as they might be able to after perusing the "nsfw section" of a person's smartphone! lol
