👉 A telecom weapon, often referred to as a "smuggler's phone" or "cell phone jammer," is a device designed to disrupt or disable mobile phone signals in a specific geographic area. These weapons typically use radio frequency (RF) technology to interfere with cellular networks, effectively cutting off calls, texts, and data services. They can be used by various actors, including state-sponsored entities, criminal organizations, or even individuals with malicious intent. While they can be effective in creating temporary communication blackouts, their use raises significant ethical and legal concerns due to potential violations of privacy, civil liberties, and international law.
