Has anyone been able to track down the real locations of these fake cell towers? I couldn't get find a source any more detailed than the Popular Science article. That Popular Science article just has Google Maps "teardrops" in various large cities. There's a teardrop in Denver, where I live. If I had the actual location (street address or latitude/longitude) I'd go look at it, take pictures, read signage, see if my phone went to 2G, etc. -- NSA CIA FBI NRO TSA JENKEM DHS BUTTHASH SNOWDEN GCHQ ECHELON FASTSCOPE Warrantless wiretapping is un-American and unpatriotic: Defund the NSA.
