President elections are protected With Jammers

Recently Ukrainians had to choose a president to lead them to prosperity and as usual some candidates tried to gain more votes in any possible way, even unauthorized one. In addition to ”ordinary” 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 method 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 technologies made possible for a person to get absolute control over the voting process of another person with the help of various secret gizmos. So several political parties decided 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” choice. Also for these purposes mobile phones that support video calls were used.

Knowing all this, some parties equipped their representatives with special cell phone jammers to jam 2.4 GHz frequency and thus to prevent opponents from using wireless cameras. Also GSM and 3G jammers were used to disable 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 bands but also is rather 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 cell phonejammers is growing not only among common people but also among various government officials and organizations. In winter 2010 jammers were used at the elections, in spring 2010 phoneblockers are supposed to be used during school exams. What’s next?
