Does anyone know of any legislation prohibiting the use of IMSI catchers in New Zealand?  Considering building one for a specific (legitimate) purpose.  The use of the data would be legal provided the actual use of the device is legal.

Thanks @freitasm

 

As @wellygary has already mentioned, the Radiocommunications act covers this off under section 133A. There are however exceptions in the act for the security services to do their work. @kyhwana2 and others have covered off most other things already. The Cellcos have excellent equipment to find unlicensed transmitters, so please don't do it.
