Jammer – Ideal Weapon Against Falsification
Recently Ukrainians had to choose a president who will lead them to the bright future and yet again some candidates tried to use any possibility to gain more votes, even unlawful ones . 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 method has serious disadvantage, there is a possibility that voter will take money and still give his vote to another candidate. It was absolutely impossible to find out the voter’s choice until now. Today’s technique allowed a person to get absolute control over the voting process of another person with the help of various secret tools. So several political parties decided to place small hidden wireless cams 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, other parties provided their representatives with special phone jammer to block 2.4 GHz frequency and thus to stop competitors from using wireless cams. Also GSM and 3G blockers were used to jam any cell phones at the voting cabins. In the vast majority of cases only one jammer was used. This universal jammer not only disrupts all these frequencies but also is very compact so it was not a problem to use it secretly.
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 different government officials and organizations. In winter 2010 blockers were used at the elections, in spring 2010 phonejammers are supposed to be used during school exams. What’s next?
