What does a modern day police "wire" look like?

Some kid I know got snitched on a few months and he told me the other kid wore a wire. Now whenever I see him at his house he asks everyone to lift their shirt up to see if they are wearing a wire. I was thinking that seemed a little over paranoid considering he doesn't even sell anything anymore. But I was wondering if anyone knows what a modern day police wire looks like? I can't imagine they still use a little recorder and some wires taped to someone chest. It's probably some wireless microphone they have hidden in the persons hair or something right?

Just curious to see what one looks like. Technology is amazing these days.

Edit: Thanks for not being douchebags. Sorry I didn't know that a police wire wasn't a real wire.

It's almost impossible to predict. That's why anybody who wants to have a discussion has to get naked and jump in the bathtub with me.

Some genius on this sub recently recommended portable white boards and dry erase markers for all in-person communiqués. I have to resist the urge to sling in the conference rooms at work now.

Feds essentially have the ability to turn any active cell phone into a listening device.

Hahah, they use fake flip phones and the automatic car lock things on your key chain. That's what I have seen.

Literally anything. I've heard of watches and phone cases being used on friends personally.

More likely, as somebody said here, a mobile phone on record.

Is there no type of detection technology available to counter it.Something that "sweeps" the surrounding area.Your eyes can be fooled but surely there is something?
