Yes, your calls would be traveling over an encrypted tunnel to the carrier instead of the (simulated) cell tower, thus preventing the Stingray/site-simulator from carrying and listening in on your call.

However, it would not stop someone from listening to the call at any point over the rest of the path since the call itself is not encrypted, only the transport between the carrier and your phone.

I believe the app stays available in the Purchases section like you said if the developer "unpublishes" the app, but not if the account or app is "terminated" by Apple.

In addition to Dash (which I'm not able to locate in my Purchases tab), I've noticed this to be the case with apps that violate Apple's rules, like those hidden proxies or emulators that have sprung up over the years and were later removed by Apple.
