RE: Cellebrite Can "Hack Any Device" with UFED Extraction Technology | DD18 The Wikileaks Archive

Always appreciate your investigations.

A little off topic, but was hopeful you might have come across this. I knew vaguely about the stingray interceptors being used to intercept cell phone communication between cells and towers. On a thread the other day, one of the protestors said authorities used one to zap everyones cell phone batteries dead. Have you heard of such a thing? I spent hours trying to find any indication they can do that and found nothing.

Sort:  

That's really interesting, and no I hadn't heard about this. I didn't know that stingrays could be used offensively like that, I thought they were only capable of intercepting signals. I heard that jammers were being deployed by some police departments though. If you find anything more about that certainly make a post in deep dives as I think that highlighting the tools being used to put down legitimate protests is valuable information.
