FBI seeks covert audio recorder for smartphones
privacysos.org
The FBI is seeking bids for a smartphone app to enable agents to covertly record audio, store the data locally, automatically send the data to FBI headquarters, livestream recordings to other FBI agents, and display the GPS location of the agent recording on a map. Posted July 29, 2016, the advertisement for bids also asks that the app enable overt recordings of audio and video, to enable agents to document interviews.
The FBI’s “Audio Recorder Technical Requirements” appendix describes two possible scenarios in which FBI agents would use the app. The first is covert:
Ultimately, the FBI says, it wants the app to enable covert video recording, too.
The system will also enable agents “to send the audio, video, and/or GPS data without storing it on the phone or server.” Most importantly, “while in live audio mode, the phone being used as a covert recorder shall have a means to hide the fact that it is recording and streaming audio. The vendor can implement this as a fake app, or a hidden app that requires a special input (like a pattern of taps or swipes) to bring it into view, or some other method, at its discretion.”
