During the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, WIRED investigated reports of IMSI catchers or Stingrays—developed by Harris Corporation—being used for surveillance. Although no evidence of Stingray deployment was found, the investigation uncovered vulnerabilities in the tracking of devices. The presence of numerous devices emitting signals, including law enforcement technology, highlighted the potential for tracking both protesters and police. Despite the undertaking of stringent security measures, the lack of confirmed use of IMSI catchers suggests no direct financial or reputation impact on Harris Corporation itself.
