So just man in the middle all the encryption that goes on with modern phone protocols? Should we all have to install the stingray root cert on all our phones?

So just man in the middle all the encryption that goes on with modern phone protocols? Should we all have to install the stingray root cert on all our phones? or should the phone providers have to provide them a valid tower cert on demand?

Don't stingrays downgrade to 2g where cellphones didn't authenticate the tower?

  No, even with 3G phones generally won't complain in any visible way if the tower doesn't support encryption.

    I mean, I think they downgrade to 2G for a lot of reasons; the encryption (or lack thereof) isn't the only one.
