This is interesting. Not that I want anyone to share this information far and wide, especially where surveillance might be violating civil rights.

@reallyflygreg And just in case they haven't made the information more visible yet... The Orbic device (possibly others as well?) requires a sim card to be installed. ANY blank sim card will do, I spent $4 on ebay and got a new one, stuck it in the device, and it started working right away, but you do need to have this card so the device can talk to the cell towers. And no, this won't catch state-of-the-art tower spoofers, but it will probably spot anything the average city or state is using.
