Jammer – Ideal Weapon Against Falsification
Once again Ukrainians had to choose a president who will lead them to the bright future and yet again some political forces tried to use any possibility to gain more votes, even unlawful ones . In addition to ”ordinary” ways of falsification that were used in 2004, improved ways of interfering into voting process took place.
Everyone knows 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 give his vote to another candidate. It was absolutely impossible to spy out the voter’s choice until now. New technique allowed a person to gain absolute control over the voting process of another person with the help of various secret gizmos. Thus some political parties started to place small secret wireless cameras 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” choice. Also for these purposes mobile phones that support video calls were used.
Knowing all this, some parties provided their representatives with special phone jammers to disrupt 2.4 GHz frequency and thus to prevent competitors from using wireless cameras. Also GSM and 3G jammers were used to jam all mobile phones at the voting cabins. In the vast majority of cases a single 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 you see, blockers become more and more popular at the post-Soviet countries. The demand for phoneblockers is growing not only among common people but also among various 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?
