This machine can drain a phone’s batteries at a distance of  200 metres, by forcing it to transmit at full power. It can also block calls to nearby phones

In a way, none of those things sounds all that bad on their own. The point is that the US police force are going to be able to listen in on anyone they fancy. Sure, it won’t always be used illegally, and yes, they’ll lie to the judges and the rest of community to ensure they get away with it. It’s just another step down the road to a police state.

In the UK we are quite a way behind America in their love of guns and controlling the masses, but where the US goes, we tend to follow. Here’s hoping that we don’t.
