Some government comms such as areas including disaster relief and simple police dispatch are end to end
Thalw problem is the key is transmitted in dtmf or other means in the clear. I am not sure what my local pd uses for encryption but I'm guessing it's outdated.
You can set the tornado sirens off with a small transmitter and recording the very consistent tone pattern of you wanted.
The worrisome thing is that cops use their cellphones instead, which is much more secure but also is used accidentally or purposefully to avoid public records.
- angry_octet 6y agoPolice dispatch might be encrypted but not very well. https://www.mattblaze.org/blog/p25 https://www.mattblaze.org/blog/p25 It's actually worse than clear text radio in many ways. All cellphone call meta data and all SMSes are recorded, so while it avoids people listening in scanners and the public record it isn't very confidential. It's police using WhatsApp and Signal that will cause big problems.
