This is a good article, as before I had no idea such sophisticated rogue towers were such a threat all over the US.
It is common. Where I live, in San Jose, California, our police department was caught illegally monitoring phone calls by operating a Stingray, which mimics a cell phone tower. Of course no one was punished or disciplined, and certainly no one lost their badge, because, hey, they are cops, and boys will be boys.
