Not only does this trace buster keep a buster from tracing your call, but it can also trace the MF that's tracing your shit. But if them MFs got a trace buster too, that's why I gots this trace buster BUSTER. See when a MF try to bust your trace with a trace buster, this MF gonna bust the MF trace buster that's busting your trace.
As situations sometimes become complicated in a locale, I suppose that this leaking could get you flagged as a potential troublemaker, or included in a small pool of persons of interest regarding an event/incident, etc.
(Most people neither think about nor are concerned with such possibilities, but if you find this device fun or interesting, then I'd guess probably you are more likely than the average person to want to reconcile how it works, with your fun/interesting/real threat model.)
Per <https://efforg.github.io/rayhunter/configuration.html>:
> ntfy URL for Sending Notifications, which allows setting a ntfy URL to which notifications of new detections will be sent. The topic should be unique to your device, e.g., https://ntfy.sh/rayhunter_notifications_ba9di7ie or https://myserver.example.com/rayhunter_notifications_ba9di7i.... The ntfy Android and iOS apps can then be used to receive notifications. More information can be found in the ntfy docs.
Then it looks like you can probably just do the communication between server and app using HTTP(S), though the app either needs to keep a connection open or poll frequently (with entirely new TCP and possibly TLS connection negotiation each poll time):
`ntfy` is impressive, but there's a lot of implementation to it that could have vulns, there's substantial server config to do, the app-side UX polish isn't great, and the connection method is inefficient. But it might not obviously leak to some centralized thing outside your control (unlike if you do iOS push notifications the normal way).
To add, if you truly want to prevent any forensics on your iPhone (especially if you are traveling), make sure to pair lock your iPhone to a MacBook you leave in your house.

Any idea how you would abuse control a project like that if it's no cost for the hardware?
using a different tool, "Marlin". The article has some technical details.
