President elections are protected With Jammers
Once again Ukrainians had to choose a president to lead them to prosperity and as always some political forces tried to gain more votes in any possible way, even unlawful one. In addition to “standard” ways of falsification that were used during previous elections, 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. But this technique has one big disadvantage, there is a possibility that voter will take money and still give his vote to another candidate. It was absolutely impossible to spy 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 spy gadgets. So several political forces started to place small hidden wireless cameras on the bribed voters to get 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 support video calls were used.
Knowing all this, other parties provided their representatives with special phone jammer to disrupt 2.4 GHz frequency and thus to stop opponents from using wireless cams. Also GSM and 3G blockers were used to disable all mobile phones at the voting cabins. In the vast majority of cases only one jammer was used. That universal jammer not only disrupts all these frequencies but also is highly compact so it was not a problem to use it secretly.
As we can see, jammers become more and more popular at the post-Soviet countries. The demand for phonejammers 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 cell phonejammers are supposed to be used during school exams. What’s next?
