30 Nov 09 Church installs cellphone jamming device and gets fined

It happened in New Zealand, a church that was tired of seeing their services interrupted due to phone calls and other sounds coming from mobile phones, decided to install a cellphone jamming device inside the church, but in the end that didn’t make much sense because they got fined.

One of the reasons that made this solution work in the wrong way is related to the concerns made by Vodafone, that stated some problems in the area were affecting the network.

The church is understood to have been donated the jamming equipment. It has been illegal to sell jamming devices since August 2009, but not to import them from overseas sellers.
