Mobile Phone Jammers

I mean, they are illegal.
What if I try and get around the jammer? Is that legal?

The Mobile Phone Jammers is a blog for discussion of mobile phone jammer devices and their application.  It should be noted that these devices are restricted in some locations and readers should check their local regulations prior to purchase or use.

What are Mobile Phone Jammers?

Why are Mobile Phone Jammers Used?

You may be asking yourself: “Why someone would want to cut off the communication of mobile phone users?”

For many reasons, mobile phone jammers have become popular in several settings – both for security as well as socially unacceptable behaviors.

Classroom mobile phone jammer use has become a standard in many countries (where allowed by law), and can be particularly useful at a school or university.  By blocking mobile phone signals, students are not distracted by their own phones or the phones of other students.  Additionally, mobile phone jammers benefit educators by blocking test messaging, which many students use for cheating on examinations.

Secure facilities, such as prisons, jails, and detention centers, can also benefit from mobile phone jamming when it prevents illicit communication.  Inmates have a desire for unmonitored lines of communication between themselves and visitors, or other persons outside the secure area that may be collaborating with the inmate.

A mobile phone jammer can also be beneficial in social settings.  Cinemas, funeral homes, libraries, restaurants, and places of worship, where other patrons expect silence, are also key areas where mobile phone jammers are used with frequency.

Therefore, having a mobile phone jammer can…

• Aid in security needs
• Stop Cheating and help educators keep the focus on education
• Provide quiet in locations where cell phone use is inappropriate

It should be noted that mobile phone jammers are not intended to case harm.  When jamming mobile phone signals, emergency services frequencies (Fire / Police / EMT) are not disturbed.

Mobile phone jammers are not allowed in all countries and / or municipalities, and as such care should be taken to research their use in your area prior to installing or operating one.  But if your facility or location does not have a restriction, you may want to  consider purchasing a mobile phone jammer.
