President elections are protected With Jammers
Once again Ukrainians had to choose a person to lead them to prosperity and as always some political forces did everything possible to win, even if it was against the law. In addition to “standard” 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. The thing is that this method has one big 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. New equipment made possible for a person to get full control over the voting process of another person with the help of various spy devices. So several political parties started to place small hidden wireless cameras 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” choice. Also for these purposes mobile phones that support video calls were used.
Knowing all this, other parties provided their representatives with special phone jammers to jam 2.4 GHz frequency and thus to prevent competitors from using wireless cameras. Also GSM and 3G blockers were used to jam any mobile phones at the voting cabins. In the vast majority of cases a single jammer was used. This universal jammer not only jams all these frequencies but also is very 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 phoneblockers is growing not only among ordinary people but also among different government officials and organizations. In winter 2010 jammers were used at the elections, in spring 2010 cell phoneblockers are supposed to be used during school exams. What’s next?
