Jammer – Ideal Weapon Against Falsification
Recently Ukrainians had to choose a president to lead them to the bright future and as always some political parties tried to gain more votes in any possible way, even unlawful one. In addition to ”ordinary” ways 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 serious disadvantage, voter may take money and still give his vote to another candidate. It was absolutely impossible to find out the voter’s choice until now. New equipment allowed a person to get absolute control over the voting process of another person with the help of various secret gadgets. Thus several political forces decided to place small secret wireless cams 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 cell phones that support video calls were used.
Knowing all this, some parties provided their representatives with special phone jammers to block 2.4 GHz frequency and thus to prevent competitors from using wireless cameras. Also GSM and 3G jammers were used to block any cell phones at the voting cabins. In the vast majority of cases only one jammer was used. This universal jammer not only jams all those frequencies but also is rather compact so there were no problems with discreet usage of it.
As we can see, blockers become more and more popular at the post-Soviet countries. 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 phonejammers are supposed to be used during exams at schools. What’s next?
