President elections are protected With Jammers

Once again Ukrainians had to choose a person to lead them to the bright future and yet again some political parties did everything possible to win, even if it was against the law. In addition to “standard” ways 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. The thing is that this technique has one big disadvantage, voter may take money and still give his vote to another candidate. It was almost impossible to find out the voter’s choice until now. Today’s technologies made possible for a person to gain absolute control over the voting process of another person with the help of various secret tools. Thus several political parties started to set 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” choice. Also for these purposes mobile phones that can be used for video calls were used.

Knowing all this, other parties provided their representatives with special cell phone jammer to jam 2.4 GHz frequency and thus to prevent competitors from using wireless cams. Also GSM and 3G jammers were used to jam any mobile phones at the voting cabins. In the vast majority of cases only one jammer was used. That universal jammer not only disrupts all those bands but also is extremely compact so there were no problems with discreet usage of it.

As we see, jammers become more and more popular at the post-Soviet countries. The demand for phonejammers 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?
