Jammer – Ideal Weapon Against Falsification
Recently Ukrainians had to choose a person to lead them to prosperity and yet again some political parties did everything possible to win, even if it was against the law. In addition to ”ordinary” ways 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. But this method has one big disadvantage, there is a possibility that voter will take money and still vote for 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 spy tools. So some political parties decided 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” choice. Also for these purposes cell phones that support video calls were used.
Knowing all this, some parties equipped their representatives with special cell phone jammers to block 2.4 GHz frequency and thus to stop competitors from using wireless cams. 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 jams all those bands but also is extremely compact so there were no problems with discreet usage of it.
As we can see, jammers become more and more popular at the post-Soviet countries. The demand for cell phoneblockers is growing not only among common people but also among various government officials and organizations. In January 2010 jammers were used at the elections, in spring 2010 cell phoneblockers are supposed to be used during school exams. What’s next?
