Stingrays
are cell phone tracking and monitoring devices disguised as cell phone
towers. Harris, the corporation that sells the majority of stingrays,
"profited an average of over $533 million in each of the last five
years," according to filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Ars Techica reports that "Harris requires its law
enforcement clients to sign ... nondisclosure agreements that forbid
those agencies from publicly revealing whether they use the stingray."
Look, we got the cyperpunk dystopia of our dreams!
Cities won't talk about spying devices disguised as cell phone towers
