There is a federal law that says it is illegal to listen in on and/or record cellular phone calls. There’s no two ways about this if they don’t have a warrant for each cell phone they intercept.

Stingray masks itself as the strongest tower in the area, forcing your phone to make it the default choice, then once it has control of your signal, forces it into unencrypted mode, where anybody can listen in.
Kinda creepy. Yet these units are for sale to the public?!

I always find it comical that the NSA is located[albeit .gov land] in Maryland, yet they constantly violate the Maryland Wiretapping and Electronic Surveillance Act every day.

Supposedly, it’s against the law to kill 78 men, women and children.
Cell phone snooping ain’t no thing...comparatively. ..

There is a certain segment of law enforcement that has an attitude that if it hasn't been expressly prohibited then it is okay. The other segment of law enforcement won't do that because they don't want to blow their case. A perfect example of this is the use of GPS trackers. A certain organization (FBI) started slapping trackers on anything that moved. That soon spread to DEA and ATF. Then it skipped departments over to HSI (rebranded ICE investigations). Meanwhile other agencies treated trackers with the a more conservative legal respect, getting specific warrants from the appropriate US Attorneys.
Needless to say warrantless trackers got the full smackdown and Stingray is getting it too.
