The government has always done this to all people.

And what's crazy is the next step of surveillance... It feels like the current state of America is to get extreme modern mass surveillance in place... Adoption of trackable money, and all digital movement tracked and attached to id. They basically already do it all but it's masked as a consumer product. They are trying to make a reason to make it all federally own.

There already is pre-crime harassment. It's what "gangstalking" actually is... They just needed to surround it with dumbass conspiracy theories so that no one would believe it. They are trying to make all this legal, like a new foundation for human society.

    Did not know about gangstalking as an illness (first described in 2015). Thx.

    But I knew about the Comm (est. 2010ish ) I also know about 764. None if these groups are described in psychological literature.

    Maybe a huge network of likeminded sociopaths is against psychological doctrine? Weird.

    Do you know if Rayhunter need an internet connection to function? Being able to carry it around portably would likely be the ideal setup.

    I'm new to it and don't have the hardware yet, but no I don't think so. From BleepingComputer's site: "When Rayhunter detects suspicious network traffic [like a 2g downgrade], Orbic's default green/blue screen turns red, informing users of a potential Stingray attack."

    The idea is to make a mobile setup and carry it in the car or a backpack. Especially for protests.

    More device options exist as well. Rayhunter is confirmed to work on these devices.

    I made a discussion post on their GitHub requesting the information. If it does then I’m buying an Orbic right away.

    I may be stepping outside my field of knowledge but I can’t see why they don’t just build a local database of known threats to utilize offline.
