A cell phone blocker is basically defined as a device that stops any
communication process within phones. Due to the rising number of mobile
phone subscribers, there are also rising concerns such as breach of
privacy and cheating at tests in schools. Cell phone blocker also use to
disrupt communications by outlaws and rebels, which hampers their
illegal and violent operations. There are phone jammers that are
designed to stop the remote capabilities of mobile phones from causing
improvised explosive device (IED) explosions by terrorists.
Why does the United Kingdom need cell phone blocker? Since the British
troops have fought alongside the coalition forces in wars against
Islamist terrorists in Afghanistan and Iraq, they are aware of the
bombing capabilities of the militants. British authorities know that
terrorists are known to use mobile phones as improvised remote controls
to cause explosions. Since the July 7, 2005 bus bombings in London, law
enforcement agencies all over the country has sought a need for jammers
to keep prisoners from making communications that could lead to their
escape. However, the British youth and human rights advocates express
their concerns on the proposed widespread use of cell phone blocker.
They fear that the devices could lower the transparency on government
activities and suspicious doings by political officials, wherein mobile
communication can become useful sources of evidence in fighting
political crimes. The youth and human rights promoters add that cutting
off mobile phone communications can deprive them of freedom of
expression, since Great Britain has a huge population of mobile phone
subscribers.
As of now, the British government is taking consideration on the use of cell phone blocker in UK prisons. However, they believe that jammers can become a useful tool to protect citizens from various crimes and ensure the security of Britain sovereignty. Hopefully when these cell phone blocker things are used wisely, British authorities can become heroes of the modern society, just like the fictional super agent James Bond.
