so the operatives provided phones with this tech on it and the gangs used it. that doesn't seem so complex to me.

if i use a third-party encryption app with a key system, that would seem to be immune to operations like this, yes? as far as them just being able to spy on me willy nilly. this case sounds akin to social engineering.

I try and convert it to a more analog analogy. Like, I'd say this is equal to if they provided a landlines phone that had a listening device. That would still be illegal, unless they had a warrant. How they get access to the communications is irrelevant unless someone is willingly and knowingly giving them access.
