State lawmakers are being asked to enact Arizona’s first rules on when police can use technology to track cellphones.
The legislation crafted by the Attorney General’s Office would make it clear in law that state and local police are required to get a search warrant before using devices such as a “StingRay,” which can home in on individual cell phones, said spokeswoman Mia Garcia.
“The proposed legislation would put Arizona at the forefront of protecting individual privacy while simultaneously helping police keep our community safe,” Garcia said.
