Does anyone know of recent crackdown on Mobile Signal Booster products ?
I came to know they can affect service quality for others.
How exactly is it possible unless it uses huge antennas or signal blocking ??

According to DoT :

“Our department has taken a very serious view on the installation of illegal repeaters as it has become a major obstruction in providing quality telecom services and clean spectrum”

They use small antenna with a power to interfere with a particular tower and creating trouble to all the users using that tower

“interfere with tower”
You mean like a DDoS attack ? stuck_out_tongue
But that’d require many users.

Only security concern I can think of is extended repeaters and signal boosters can give false user geolocation which can be used by terrorists.
