Feds gather phone data from the sky with aircraft mimicking cell towers
Sources told the WSJ that USMS operated these planes from five major airports in the US and that the program had a flying range “covering most of the US population.” The devices on the planes can capture unique identifying information from “tens of thousands” of cellphones on the ground. Using that information, federal authorities can pinpoint a cellphone user's location from “within three meters or within a specific room in a building,” the WSJ said.

The Goverment does what it wants whenever it wants, collect data...invade country after country. This nation of Zombies will accept nothing less.
I pointed out one of these aircraft to my son, it was operating in the Denver area last year! He didn't believe me. I was a CTT in the US NAVY for 20 years. I am VERY familiar with planes that are supposed to look like one thing that are really something quite different! The P-3 Orion being one good example ;)
There is a P-3 that flies out of Love Field here in Dallas. It has zero markings on it..no tail#..no anything. I can only imagine what it is up too.
This is not good... There are no bounds that they won't cross... They need to be held accountable.
Anyone have any idea as to what aircraft these are? Its quite an interesting operation.
DOJ has a bunch of these airplanes. Brand new CE182's,and CE206's. FLIR pods hanging off the side, big picture windows for "observing" etc... "Jenna and Flint are a couple of callsigns that I have heard them use when they fly out from my local airport. I've seen them from Jacksonville to El Paso and I'm sure they are everywhere in-between and beyond. Our tax dollars at work.
I feel so much safer after reading this,,, I just had a shiver go up my leg!
