Wonderful...gives more examples to alphabet soup and local agency's to encrypt. I hate people.

Temporarily shut down the feed or there won't be anything to feed other than static in the future!

I run the Philly feed and if I found out that it was being used like that I would immediately stop until things settle down.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'd trade the loss of feeds for no encryption on regular PD (and FD) dispatch channels. Encryption is entirely appropriate for other comms.

From the protestors chat:
bbettybbq: oh no police chatter is up! 30 seconds ago

Clear proof they are using our hobby and site for less than legitimate purposes

Agreed. I was wondering why my scanner radio app alerted me in the middle of the night that this feed had 1000+ listeners. It makes sense if they're spamming the link every few minutes.

Even without OWS, those frequencies should not be streamed. The warrant checks alone are civilians personal info. People's (most of whom have no warrants) names and birthdays should not be made available worldwide.
