Stingray Law Enforcement by mack | Apr 1, 2022 | 3 OZ & 158 GRAINS page, Gear Bf | 0 comments Stingray is the generic name for an electronic surveillance tool that simulates a cell phone tower in order to force mobile phones and other devices to connect to it instead of to a legitimate cell tower. In doing so, the phone or other device reveals information about itself and its user to the operator of the stingray. Other common names for the tool are “cell-site simulator” and “IMSI catcher.” ChiTown Sue’s Explanation: Submit a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
