Stingrays are a lot more specific and a lot more laborious than just pulling it all at the trunk. If there's someone with a stingray around, that means there's someone nearby considered high profile enough for the FBI or DEA to do a truck roll. Far more likely, your phone is connecting to a tower, but there's so much data flowing through the cellular network that the tower puts you on "hold" to get back to the mothership. This is pretty much Los Angeles from 3:30pm until 6pm M-F. AT&T has a saturated network in particular. If only there were some way to bring usage down.
