That sounds like a nice tradeoff between the responsibility and full- disclosure, as activists will have the right tool for political activity, demonstrating in front of buch on politicians, lawyers, opinion makers the issue and forcing "someone" to do the proper investment on those stuff.
I am wondering whether, for privacy activism demonstration purposes, would not be more simpler to use semi-active instead of full passive attack. Are those simpler (even if less hidden) ? Regarding 'practical' approach, are there already plans to package everything into some attack distribution like backtrack (precompiled & with livecd boot) along with detailed step-by-step howtos (what to buy, how to plug everything together, how to use the software) ? I mean something that would not be only for ppl with strong gsm hacking knowledge and coding. I would be happy to provide some support, also arranging a "bounty" approach like it has been done with TOR, collecting funds from public and private, and placing them trough "bounty" for hackers and developers. I would personally provide funding and organize bounty program to make an 'Easy GSM crack' tool integrated within some hacking distribution. Does the currently released set of tools already fully does non- realtime signal-channel decoding and decryption "in a box" or it will take some time before the release? I am very excited about that research and would really like to bring your results available to anyone in a very easy and strong way!
