Policy addressing use of technology that mimics cell towers to receive signals has been in works since 2017 and is yet to be finalized
in the Lower Mainland have continued to use a tool that allows investigators to track suspects based on the location of their cellphones, despite failing to finalize a policy on how to address significant privacy issues raised about the technology.
The federal police force has generally been tight-lipped about cell-site simulators , also known as international mobile subscriber identity catchers, or by the brand name Stingray.
Cpl. Chamberland said in her e-mail that the 2020 draft policy has still not been finalized, despite the agency having used the technology since July, 2005. Cell-site simulators are part of a slate of technologies to which law enforcement agencies have access that have raised concerns about privacy. Other emerging investigative technologies have similarly seen questions or criticisms about the guardrails in place for their use.that the safeguards set up around using emerging technologies, including facial recognition, were underfunded and understaffed.
Cpl. Chamberland, in her January e-mail, said the privacy commissioner’s report, as well as court and technological challenges meant the use of the device was curtailed for a time following 2017.
