@Snowden If you would be forced to chose whether you use an off-the-shelf iPhone, Android or Windows Phone - which would you prefer and why?

@Snowden @bunniestudios @MIT Would be cool if you could do the ultrasonic noise microphone-bug defeat thing too. (not sure if patented)

.@buckybits Since this is a mockup, it could apply to any phone. Android antenna test points are easy to find. @Snowden @bunniestudios @MIT

.@buckybits @Snowden @bunniestudios @MIT I'm glad they used an iPhone for the example because other smartphones will be even easier to mod.

.@buckybits @Snowden @bunniestudios @MIT e.g. you can pry the back cover off of a Nexus 5 and access the antennas with snap-on patch cables.

.@Snowden @bunniestudios @MIT This is excellent work. Baseband UART traffic for GPS is for A-GPS. Monitoring the GPS amplifier should work.

.@Snowden @bunniestudios @MIT Having worked on Android telephony, Apple seems a bit more secure having their baseband on a separate chip.

.@Snowden @bunniestudios @MIT it's good to read from an independent source that iPhone airplane mode really does turn off the baseband CPU.

.@Snowden @bunniestudios @MIT it's difficult to find Android phones with physically separate app & baseband CPUs. Snapdragon is all-in-one.

.@Snowden @bunniestudios @MIT out of curiosity, have you tried to decode the BB UART traffic? Is it SPI bus? libqmi library may be helpful.
