President elections are protected With Jammers
Lately Ukrainians had to choose a president to lead them to prosperity and yet again some political forces tried to gain more votes in any possible way, even unauthorized one. In addition to “standard” methods of falsification that were used in 2004, improved methods 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 vote for another candidate. It was almost impossible to find 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 gadgets. Thus several political forces started to place small secret wireless cams on the bribed voters to receive real time video from voting cabin and so got the chance 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, other parties equipped their representatives with special cell phone jammer to block 2.4 GHz frequency and thus to stop competitors from using wireless cams. Also GSM and 3G jammers were used to block any cell phones at the voting cabins. In the vast majority of cases a single jammer was used. That universal jammer not only jams all those frequencies but also is rather compact so there were no problems with discreet usage of it.
As you can see, blockers become more and more popular at the post-Soviet countries. The demand for cell phonejammers 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 phonejammers are supposed to be used during exams at schools. What’s next?
