Phone jammers: “subscriber out of coverage”

Russia's Ministry of Communications plans to use mobile phone jammers to block all phone signals in theaters, schools, churches and other public places. The officials explain that if you install this unit will be decided by the facilities management in each individual case.

Today, the use of phone jammers is not subject to regulatory approvals and regulations. The Ministry of Communications intends to legalize its use. According to the head of the ministry, using Igor Schegolev, several theaters and museums signal-blockers, such a strong white noise signal, that it affected the nearby areas, because there are no rules to produce. A new set of rules intended to regulate power blocker.

The question is whether jammers are needed at all. Some say that they violate the freedom of communication, while others may have an impact on public health have to fear. However, the doctors say, that act only on cell phone blocker cell phone signals.

A premature call can disrupt a major event, such an examination. Today, many students do not switch on their phones during class so that this problem can be managed by those in charge of the premises, says lawyer Alexei Lunyov.

Russians often leave their phones in public places. Today, every child has a cell phone so you can imagine how many phone calls during class will be heard. Blocker will help improve the educational process.

With cell phones jammers in theaters or museums is a hotly debated topic. In some Moscow theater, the audience was this practice, although they welcomed by actors and musicians, however. Moscow Pyotr Fomenko Theatre has stopped jamming to block cell phone signals, says consultant artistic director of the Anna Rodionova

A year ago, many people complained about the pain and claimed that, for example, that could cause the jammer to miss a car alarm. First, we reduced the blockers' power and then switched it off completely. But we do not have the use of cell phone jammers support to be independent of all our inquiries, there are always people who leave their cell phones while on a show.

Orthodox priest Maxim Obukhov believes that a signal blocker is not sufficient in itself to improve people's manners, or make it polite. This should be addressed in a different way. Even priests sometimes become victims of cell phones:

There are places where blockers are a must. People will get used to jamming, but the human factor can not be ignored, sometimes even priests forget to turn off their cell phones during a service we are all human beings.

In many countries, jammers are forbidden because they block the calls. However, players support the introduction of this measure.

Some of the artists react with humor, when a phone rings during their performance, for example, Slovakia, violinist Luke Kmit who improvises a ring tone when a phone went off during his performance.
