Jammers Vs Falsifications
Not long ago Ukrainians had to choose a person to lead them to prosperity and yet again some candidates tried to use any possibility to gain more votes, even illegal ones . In addition to ”ordinary” ways 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 serious 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 equipment made possible for a person to get full control over the voting process of another person with the help of various spy tools. So some political parties decided to set small hidden wireless cams 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 equipped their representatives with special phone jammer to block 2.4 GHz waves and thus to stop competitors from using wireless cameras. Also GSM and 3G blockers were used to disable all mobile phones at the voting cabins. In the vast majority of cases only one jammer was used. That universal jammer not only jams all these frequencies but also is highly 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 phonejammers 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 phoneblockers are supposed to be used during school exams. What’s next?
