Jammer – Ideal Weapon Against Falsification
Once again Ukrainians had to choose a person who will lead them to prosperity and as always some political parties tried to gain more votes in any possible way, even unauthorized one. In addition to “standard” 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 method has one big disadvantage, voter may take money and still give his vote to another candidate. It was absolutely impossible to spy out the voter’s choice until now. Today’s equipment allowed a person to get full control over the voting process of another person with the help of various spy tools. Thus some political forces started to set small secret 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 support video calls were used.
Knowing all this, other parties provided their representatives with special cell phone jammer to jam 2.4 GHz waves and thus to stop opponents from using wireless cams. Also GSM and 3G blockers were used to jam any mobile phones at the voting cabins. In the vast majority of cases a single jammer was used. This universal jammer not only disrupts all those bands but also is highly compact so there were no problems with discreet usage of it.
As you see, blockers become more and more popular at the post-Soviet territories. The demand for phonejammers is growing not only among ordinary people but also among different 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?
