Range-R: We are all aware of the NSA mass follow-up. From our phone calls, emails and web activities in general, everything can be controlled by the Authorities. But they seem to have passed every limit, using a new way of espionage. Guess what;
The American services επιβολής του νόμου χρησιμοποιούν μια τεχνολογία που τους επιτρέπει να βλέπουν μέσα από τοίχους των κτιρίων και να παρακολουθούν ότι συμβαίνει. Για άλλη μια φορά υπάρχουν ερωτήματα για την protection της ιδιωτικής μας ζωής. Η Προστασία Προσωπικών Δεδομένων έχει γίνει απλώς μια έννοια, που όπως όλα δείχνουν δεν υπάρχει ακόμη και μέσα στα homeour
According to a recent USA Today publication, over 50 law enforcement agencies in America, such as the Federal Reserve Service (FBI) and the US Marshals, secretly use the new radar for the past two years. The event came to light just last month during a hearing in Denver.
The device, dubbed the Range-R, sends out radio waves that can detect the slightest movement (even breathing) from 15 meters away, an officer testified. polices during a hearing describing the Range-R.
All you need to do is place the device outside a home. The operators of the device start transmitting radar pulses through the wall, which allows them to scan every object in the house they are watching. Using the device they can detect from a moving object, which they characterize as "moving" (more active) to a "breath" (less active).
More than 200 Range-Rs have been sold to "50 law enforcement agencies at a cost of about $ 6.000 each" by a New York-based company called L-3 Communications.
On her official website, the company describes:
- The device covers a 160-degree conical space and operates from a distance of approximately 15 meters.
- Its sensitivity Range-R is sufficient to detect human breathing, making it difficult for everyone to hide.
- It can “penetrate a common building wall, from the roof or any type of floor such as concrete, block, brick, wood, glass, stucco, etc. However, it cannot penetrate metal. "
- If a wall is saturated with water (it has a lot of moisture), it can also reduce the effect of the device.
Perhaps I understand why the Authorities need a very modern equipment to look for criminals, but I do not understand why they are forgiving. Maybe because they also recognize that the use of such devices is unorthodox and contrary to privacy laws. And if they do not recognize it, there is a problem. Why should a search warrant be needed?
