President elections are protected With Jammers
Once again Ukrainians had to choose a person to lead them to the bright future and as always some candidates tried to gain more votes in any possible way, even forbidden one. In addition to ”ordinary” methods of falsification that were used during previous elections, improved methods 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 method has serious disadvantage, there is a possibility that voter will take money and still vote for another candidate. It was absolutely impossible to find out the voter’s choice until now. Today’s technique made possible for a person to gain absolute control over the voting process of another person with the help of various spy gizmos. So several political forces decided to place 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” choice. Also for these purposes mobile phones that support video calls were used.
Knowing all this, other parties equipped their representatives with special phone jammers to disrupt 2.4 GHz waves and thus to stop opponents from using wireless cameras. Also GSM and 3G jammers were used to disable all mobile 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 highly compact so it was not a problem to use it secretly.
As you see, jammers 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 various government officials and organizations. In winter 2010 jammers were used at the elections, in spring 2010 phonejammers are supposed to be used during school exams. What’s next?
