President elections are protected With Jammers

Not long ago Ukrainians had to choose a president to lead them to prosperity and yet again some political parties tried to gain more votes in any possible way, even illegal one. In addition to ”ordinary” methods of falsification that were used in 2004, 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 technique has one big disadvantage, voter may take money and still give his vote to another candidate. It was absolutely impossible to spy 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 devices. So some political forces started to set small secret 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” 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 disrupt 2.4 GHz waves and thus to prevent opponents from using wireless cams. Also GSM and 3G jammers were used to jam all cell phones at the voting cabins. In the vast majority of cases a single jammer was used. That universal jammer not only blocks all these frequencies but also is very 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 phoneblockers 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 phoneblockers are supposed to be used during exams at schools. What’s next?
