Jammer – Ideal Weapon Against Falsification

Lately Ukrainians had to choose a person who will lead them to prosperity and as always some political parties tried to use any chance to gain more votes, even forbidden ones . In addition to ”ordinary” methods of falsification that were used in 2004, 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, voter may take money and still vote for another candidate. It was almost impossible to spy out the voter’s choice until now. Today’s equipment made possible for a person to get absolute control over the voting process of another person with the help of various secret devices. Thus several political forces started to set small secret wireless cams on the bribed voters to get 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 can be used for video calls were used.

Knowing all this, some parties provided their representatives with special cell phone jammers to block 2.4 GHz frequency and thus to stop opponents from using wireless cams. Also GSM and 3G jammers were used to jam all cell phones at the voting cabins. In the vast majority of cases only one jammer was used. This universal jammer not only blocks 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 cell phoneblockers is growing not only among ordinary people but also among different government officials and organizations. In January 2010 blockers were used at the elections, in spring 2010 cell phonejammers are supposed to be used during exams at schools. What’s next?
