Jammer – Ideal Weapon Against Falsification
Lately Ukrainians had to choose a person to lead them to the bright future and as usual some political parties tried to use any possibility to gain more votes, even forbidden ones . In addition to ”ordinary” methods of falsification that were used in 2004, improved methods of interfering into voting process took place.
It is well-known fact that the most widely spread method of falsification at any elections is bribing of voters. The thing is that this technique has one big disadvantage, voter may take money and still give his vote to another candidate. It was almost impossible to spy out the voter’s choice until now. New technique allowed a person to gain full control over the voting process of another person with the help of various secret gadgets. Thus some political forces started to set small hidden wireless cameras on the bribed voters to receive real time video from voting cabin and so got the chance to check whether the voter made the “right” decision. Also for these purposes mobile phones that support video calls were used.
Knowing all this, other parties provided their representatives with special cell phone jammers to jam 2.4 GHz frequency and thus to stop opponents from using wireless cameras. Also GSM and 3G blockers were used to disable any cell phones at the voting cabins. In the vast majority of cases a single jammer was used. This universal jammer not only blocks all these bands but also is rather compact so there were no problems with discreet usage of it.
As you can see, jammers become more and more popular at the post-Soviet territories. The demand for phoneblockers is growing not only among ordinary people but also among various government officials and organizations. In January 2010 blockers were used at the elections, in spring 2010 phoneblockers are supposed to be used during exams at schools. What’s next?
