[liberationtech] End-user IMSI detectors

[Bill Ulrich]

Hello Chris,

I've been playing with an Android App that may be what you're looking for:

  https://github.com/CellularPrivacy/Android-IMSI-Catcher-Detector

It's in early development and requires the ability to load the app
directly on to the phone, which could be a barrier.

Cheers,

Bill
