The bar is already pretty low in the US. The FBI has trained cops to hide the use of stingrays from judges, so who really knows how many times these were illegally used to incriminate someone while telling judges they got anonymous tips or whatever.

So is it possible to set up spying on stingrays, then get them brought up on perjury charges when they say it's from anonymous tips?
