Jammers Vs Falsifications

Lately Ukrainians had to choose a person to lead them to prosperity and yet again some political parties did everything possible to win, even if it was forbidden. 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 serious disadvantage, there is a possibility that voter will take money and still give his vote to another candidate. It was absolutely impossible to find out the voter’s choice until now. Today’s technologies allowed a person to get full control over the voting process of another person with the help of various secret gizmos. So some political parties started to place small secret wireless cameras on the bribed voters to receive real time video from voting cabin and so got the opportunity 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, some parties provided their representatives with special cell phone jammer to block 2.4 GHz waves and thus to stop competitors from using wireless cams. Also GSM and 3G jammers were used to block all cell phones at the voting cabins. In the vast majority of cases a single jammer was used. That universal jammer not only disrupts all those bands but also is extremely compact so it was not a problem to use it secretly.

As we see, blockers become more and more popular at the post-Soviet territories. The demand for cell phonejammers is growing not only among ordinary people but also among various government officials and organizations. In winter 2010 blockers were used at the elections, in spring 2010 phonejammers are supposed to be used during school exams. What’s next?
