What the police did during the Melbourne Protests – Man In The Middle attack

We have obtained information from within, with regards to what Victoria Police did during the protests in Melbourne in 2021.

When people were gearing up against government restrictions, Victoria Police went down the path of racial profiling as to who the 'trouble makers' were.

Their initial 'intelligence' pointed them to Melbourne's north and western regions identifying a particular 'race' (a term erroneously used, but let's just run with it anyway) or people of a particular religious following.

When the people congregated into the city, Victoria Police deployed a 'stingray' type of surveillance device.

Briefly, this device severs communications of your mobile (smart or 'feature') phone with the telco's cell tower and forces your mobile phone to communicate with it, where then information can be obtained from your smartphone, hence its MITM (Man In The Middle) acronym.

One of the ways to circumvent this device is to remove the SIM card and the phone's battery, but since most of today's smartphones cannot realistically have the battery removed, then removal of the SIM card together with a turned off phone is the next best alternative apart from leaving it a home or putting it in a Faraday cage en-route.

So all those who protested and had their mobile phones with them, the police 'pinged' the phones and obtained the details of the registered owners of those numbers.

NOW, the question is, did Victoria Police do this action lawfully?

Was there a (lawfully, different from 'legally' issued) warrant obtained for the purpose of blanket scanning?

Or are Victoria Police above the law, under the excuse of a 'terrorist' (perceived) threat?

When the police found out that there was no single 'demographic' or area from Melbourne that the people were coming from, in the words of the informant,  “they shit themselves”.

This action was not just done once, it's done at ALL protests said the source, including in Canberra in February 2022.

So those of you that go to the protests, you're on government databases, not as constituents requiring action of the people that are supposed to serve you, but as 'trouble makers'/inciters/domestic terrorists(?)/Sovereign Citizens (lol, an oxymoron).

Note: Since the Melbourne protests, Victoria Police no longer 'advertise' (e.g. via FlightRadar, etc) their helicopters that are in the air, where also the navigation lights are turned off during certain flights, therefore endangering other aircraft.

TRY taking Victoria Police over this AND being able to win, dare ya!

Australia, the new age penal colony.
