“According to new Justice Department e-mails obtained by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Northern California, and published on Wednesday, federal investigators have been routinely using ‘stingrays’ to catch bad guys. Stingrays aren’t new—law enforcement agencies nationwide are believed to have been using them for years. But one e-mail in the new trove reveals something brand-new: that the Feds were not fully clear about the fact that they were specifically using stingrays (also known as ‘IMSI catchers‘) when asking for permission to conduct electronic surveillance from federal magistrate judges.”
