“A police department in Florida failed to tell judges about its use of a cell phone tracking tool ‘because the department got the device on loan and promised the manufacturer to keep it all under wraps,’ the ACLU said in a blog post today. The device was likely a ‘Stingray,’ which is made by the Florida-based Harris Corporation. Police ‘did not want to obtain a search warrant because they did not want to reveal information about the technology they used to track the cell phone signal,’ the District Court of Appeal ruling said. ‘The prosecutor told the court that a law enforcement officer ‘would tell you that there is a nondisclosure agreement that they’ve agreed with the company.””
