#rayhunter
Back in Feb or so the #EFF released #rayhunter a piece of software that loads up on a cheap hotspot that you can buy off Amazon or other places for less than $40. I installed it this morning it went just like the site says, took about 3 minutes.
Carry one to your local protest and see if the police are using cell-site-simulators to surveil citizens
Has anyone used a #rayhunter and had it turn red/ show that there's a suspicious cell tower or likely IMSI catcher?
I'm not finding anything thus far.

A border patrol helicopter was seen circling Capitol Hill yesterday. Theories range from scare tactic, planning for future raids or even active stingray snooping.
So if you have a stingray detector in the flight path maybe check your logs.

Fairchild I've confirmed that the Orbic Speed (RC400L) Mobile Hotspot is unlocked (well, not locked' is more accurate). I have a Ting SIM in mine which was new and factory sealed and the hot spot is working (as well as #Rayhunter, which works with or without an activated SIM - they do come with a unactivated Verizon SIM already installed).
I bought 10 more of them and plan to load them and give them out to activists, organizers, and people concerned with such things. (then I wanna look into cheap meshtastic radios)

Interesting. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/03/meet-rayhunter-new-open-source-tool-eff-detect-cellular-spying #EFF #rayhunter it seems all the devices listed on eBay are locked to Verizon. I’m wondering would it be possible to get an unlocked device? Or if that would be necessary in Australia
Man, the kit it takes to visit Minneapolis is a chore…

Shoutout to the @eff!
Just got my hotspot in the mail and installing #Rayhunter couldn't have been simpler.
Can't wait to try it out!

A note on the name: Rayhunter is named such because Stingray is a brand name for cell-site simulators which has become a common term for the technology. One of the only natural predators of the stingray in the wild is the orca, some of which hunt stingrays for pleasure using a technique called wavehunting. Because we like Orcas, we don’t like stingray technology (though the animals are great!), and because it was the only name not already trademarked

Got #Rayhunter installed and running on my newly-purchased orbic. A bit cryptic, and as ever, there were permissions issues on my Mac installing it, but it's there, and once the box is charged up, I'll start carrying it around town and see what's what.
