Everyone's Jamming Cell Phones
from the join-the-party dept
Mobile phone signal jammers are illegal in the US, but that doesn't mean they're not used. They're apparently increasingly common, and are expected to spread quite a bit in the near future. The FCC says that using a jammer is considered "theft" of airwaves, because that spectrum has been allocated as property to a commercial entity. The writer of the article wonders, though, about "passive jamming" - such as putting up buildings made of material that block out cell phone signals. While some don't like the idea of having their signals blocked - others think it may become a lot more popular in the future, if only to have areas to "disconnect". The article points to the rise of camera phones as a "bottom up surveillance society" as a reason why we might want areas that have no signal. That makes little sense to me, since anyone using a camera phone can still snap the picture, and then just upload it later when they're in range of a signal. Still, it will be interesting to see if anti-jamming equipment becomes popular. Most people have no idea if a jammer is being used, since it just looks like there's no service. This makes it very difficult to figure out if someone is using a jammer, and means that no one's getting caught using these things right now.

Blocking signal is fine
But nothing says you must allow EM *INTO* where you are. In fact 1.5 years (or so) ago, a Japanese inventer created 'wood paneling' layered with metal/carbon/something else that would 'block' radio signals.

Wood panels that block EM.
This seems a resonable alternative to jamming for restaurants and theaters.

Correction
Mike,
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the article said, "Iceberg Systems, is beta-testing a new technology that will remotely turn off the cameras in cell phones." Which should make sense because it’s the camera that is turned off and not the signal that’s blocked off.

Re: Cellphones at school
I have designed a cellular phone jammer that will still allow for E911 service. The target was school systems. Unfortunately, it is currently illegal. We are waiting for a new law in the works. If you would like more information, please feel free to contact me.
