If you are interested in setting one up for yourself, It's pretty easy with the instructions provided by the @eff but you can also find help at the GitHub page.

I bought several of the cell hotspot units for only $11 off eBay.

I did mine in about 10 minutes (5 of which was looking for an answer on the GitHub page for something happening on my Mac when I went to flash the device) and it appears to be working fine.

Be sure and read the section on reporting results back to #EFF too!

Just updated my Orbic Hostspot with latest release of Rayhunter. Looking forward to bringing it with me to the protest tomorrow in Boston.

Anyone know if there are any off-line analysis/detection tools for the packet captures? i.e. more sophisticated detection algorithms that require more space or compute power than the device provides

#RationalWiki is facing imminent legal peril from 5 separate defamation lawsuits from 5 #eugenics supporters. At least 2 of the lawsuits appear to be frivolous on their face. The 5 litigants are known to have acted in concert to take advantage of the weak #SLAPP protections within our state of incorporation and to bankrupt us. We need both monetary donations and legal representation (we are already aware of both the ACLU and the #EFF).

I just received a concerning email from the OTF (@opentechfund.bsky.social) stating that a major source of their funding is in jeopardy.

If you care about open-source, anti-censorship, or the open internet, please consider supporting one of the projects they fund.

A note on the name: Rayhunter is named such because Stingray is a brand name for cell-site simulators which has become a common term for the technology. One of the only natural predators of the stingray in the wild is the orca, some of which hunt stingrays for pleasure using a technique called wavehunting. Because we like Orcas, we don’t like stingray technology (though the animals are great!), and because it was the only name not already trademarked
