Comment on Meet Rayhunter: A New Open Source Tool from EFF to Detect Cellular Spying
Andromxda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 weeks agoIs it necessary to get a cell plan to run the hotspot?
As far as I’m aware: no. Cell-site simulators could theoretically only target devices that connect with a valid IMSI, but I kinda doubt that they are doing that. But you could get a cheap prepaid SIM, instead of an actual cell plan.

How does data get back to EFF?

I couldn’t find anything on that yet. I think that since the project is still in a rather early stage of development, it’s more of a proof of concept. But I do know that the PCAPs are saved on the device, and you can download them onto another computer.

I went ahead and ordered one so I guess I’ll find out!
