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