thewayneI've written about Stingrays before, they're surveillance devices that force all of the cell phones in an area to connect with them, thus conducting yet another form of mass surveillance. And usually they're deployed without warrants.
Well, now they're in the air. The U.S. Marshall's Service have five Cesnas around the country that carry them. They're more powerful and sensitive, which means they're sweeping up a much larger area than a ground-based unit.
WHEEE!
