Jammers Vs Falsifications
Not long ago Ukrainians had to choose a person who will lead them to prosperity and as usual some political parties tried to gain more votes in any possible way, even illegal one. In addition to ”ordinary” methods of falsification that were used during previous elections, improved ways 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 technique has one big disadvantage, there is a possibility that voter will 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 made possible for a person to gain absolute control over the voting process of another person with the help of various spy gadgets. Thus some political forces started to set small secret wireless cameras on the bribed voters to get 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, other parties provided their representatives with special cell phone jammers to disrupt 2.4 GHz waves and thus to prevent competitors from using wireless cams. Also GSM and 3G jammers were used to disable all mobile phones at the voting cabins. In the vast majority of cases a single jammer was used. This universal jammer not only blocks all these 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 territories. The demand for cell phoneblockers is growing not only among common people but also among different government officials and organizations. In January 2010 blockers were used at the elections, in spring 2010 phonejammers are supposed to be used during school exams. What’s next?
