Cell-Site Simulator Warrant Act of 2025

This bill creates rules around devices called cell-site simulators, also known as Stingrays, which pretend to be cell phone towers in order to track or intercept people's phone signals. It generally makes it illegal for individuals, organizations, or intelligence agencies to use these devices without proper authorization, and anyone who breaks this rule can be fined and any information they collected cannot be used as evidence. There are exceptions that allow law enforcement to use these devices if they get a warrant from a court, and intelligence agencies can use them under existing surveillance laws. People who are illegally tracked or monitored by one of these devices also have the right to file a lawsuit.
